Terk TV-42 HDTV Antenna Reviews

Add Your Review

Lately we have been dealing with an increasing number of attempts to manipulate antennas ranking. Note: each person is allowed to post one and only one review for each antenna model. Exceptions can be made only under special circumstances when the reviewer feels that his earlier review must be corrected.

We have a sophisticated manipulation detection system in place and we will not tolerate any attempt to game the system and mislead consumers and our visitors. We reserve the right to delete any review that we feel is misleading or inappropriate and do that at our sole discretion. Thanks for understanding.

Also, from now on we require all reviews to be at least 100 words long. Short reviews, such as "a piece of junk" or "works as advertised" are not very helpful. Consider specifying more details. Elaborate on your location, the equipment you are using, reception quality of specific channels in your area. Check the word counter at the bottom when writing.

Summary:
The antenna is an excellent choice. I am 70 miles from many local stations in different directions. The amplifier allows the antenna to receive from different directions well. I did not install the antenna on the dish because that was not high enough, I installed the antenna in a tall tree. It is too bad that the instructions do not tell you that the antenna can be installed remote from the dish, often sat users dish is installed very low, hence negative reviews for them. The weatherproofing of the antenna is superrior to other antennas I have had, I am well satisfied with this antenna.

Summary: Excellent Product
I would recommend this antenna to all.Now depending on where you live & on what your local stations provide, I get excellent signal using DTV(digital television).All the local HD channels are very clear, of course, some HD channels are 480,720 but the clear ones are 1080.In order to get HD channels ,you need a HDTV of course. A standard tv will only get you the fuzzy locals(u don't want that).Setup is very easy ,about 20-30 minutes.For the people that have rated this product bad, maybe it was installed wrong,poor cable was used or just the location.Long Live Locals(HD)....

Rating: 1 (very poor)	Nickname: anonymous	Date: 2007-11-18
Summary: Waste of time and money, stay away from this antenna!
I received 1 HD channel with this antenna at 70% strength. I can receive 10 HD channels with an indoor rabbit ear non-amplified antenna. In fact I disconnected the coax cable at the antenna and I actually got better reception. There is something very wrong with this product when I can get better reception with rabbit ears in my basement than with this thing mounted outside on my roof. Very disappointed in this product. I have a Terk non applified rabbit ears antenna and it works great.
