Summary: Rabbit ears on steroids
Got a new HD TV? It has been said that 95% of americans can get five HD stations (unless you live in the mountains of Idaho, maybe). So, this will help you out, but only if the transmitting antenna is within 20 to 30 miles (30 Km or so for you non-northamericans). A rabbit ears and the the UHF loop will always help indoor reception. However, the built-in amplifier is a little on the anemic side, but it helps. The good thing is that this doesn't cost much; if you don't think it is muscular enough, at least you haven't spent up towards $100 on it. HD TV at 720p and especially at 1080i is impressive! My favorite watching is golf games on the pro circuit - you feel you are there! You can literally see individual blades of grass! So, this will give you a taste of what is possible. The sad truth of indoor TV antennas is that they don't transform lead into gold. You need a substantial outdoor, high antenna pointed in the right direction to get the gold standard in over the air reception. If you didn't grow up in the heyday of TV, you may need to face the learning curve of jumping up occasionally to change the position or length of the antenna elements or strength of the amplification. It's so fifties! Enjoy!

Summary: not good - even inferior considering it's an amplified antenna
I bought this after reading the positive reviews that I saw here, expecting to experience a dramatic improvement in reception over my shabby OLD rabbit ears. I was disappointed because this Terk didn't provide any improvement over what I had been using. I can't receive any stations clearly. Not even one - VHF or UHF! Even though this thing is right next to a 2nd-floor window and probably less than 15 miles from the transmitter. The power amplifier on this thing is a joke - it's nearly worthless. I have no idea how others are pulling in numerous hi-def stations as they claim to be.

Summary: Terk TV-3 Indoor Amplified Rabbit Ear Tv Antenna
I made this puchase one month ago and love the product. It is easy to hook up and works well. I also might add that the quality of this product is nice. I would recommend it to anybody. Sure beats paying a cable bill! I am able to pick up about 10 or more channels with it.

Summary: Pick up stations that other antennas struggle with...
This antenna is awesome. Our cable company dropped one of our local stations, so I started putting antennas on tvs that I might want to watch that station on. I could not find an antenna that would work well on my living room tv. I read reviews, and decided to buy the Terk. Incredible. One thing I really like on this particular model, is the built-in video switch on the back of the unit. I can hook my cable into the antenna, and easily switch from cable to air. If I ever need another antenna, I'll buy nothing but Terk!

Summary: gets more than 5 channels
Got an ATI HDTV Wonder back in 2006 and was only able to pull 5 channels with the included antenna (mounted stationary). After reading customer feedback, bought this antenna to replace the one I have. I now get all channels listed on antennaweb for my location with a bit of manual grunt (moving around the rabbit ears). Caveat, when I schedule recordings on my HTPC, the antenna has to be pre-positioned to get signal for the channel. Not so good when I need to schedule recordings for channels coming from different angles. Amplification's in the second to the lowest setting. It can also be turned off if you don't need it. Putting it to max just generates more noise and reduces signal strength for me. Your mileage may vary.
