| Summary: Good Antenna Just got Better |
| I've had the Terk 5 for about 3-4 years. It's been working so-so on my old Sony 32" Anolog TV. I was able to pull about 8 local channels with the antenna (most of the neighbors were only getting 3, but I did have to get up and adjust it for certain channels. I just hooked up a Digital Converter to the antenna and all I can say is WOW! I'm now getting 15 local channels and all the sub-channels that are broadcasting in our area (wooded area in suburbia about 25 miles north of Tampa. When I got this 3 or 4 years ago I thought the $50+ I paid was a little steep, and was told it wouldn't work on my non-HD Set. Man I'm glad I didn't listen the saleman and just bit the bullet on cost. Works Great for me! |

| Summary: Good buy, excellent HD reception |
| Plugged it into my new Sony HDTV in my basement theater room, auto-tuned using the Sony menu, and got 17 HD channels from all over eastern Iowa. I have the antenna sitting on top of one of my floor standing speakers about 2 feet away from the tv to minimize disturbance. I get CBS, NBC, ABC and FOX so I have definitely been getting my fill of high def football this weekend. My parents stopped by yesterday, even my mom was impressed...she commented that she could see the blades of grass on the football field! I'm looking forward to getting even more programs (and commercials) broadcast in High Def...not to mention the Olympics in HD this summer 2008! |

| Summary: Too much adjustment needed |
| I have had this antenna for some time now. I used it when I was in Houston, TX (condo) and now in Kennesaw, GA (townhouse) and both situations are the same. I can pick up signals, but it requires A LOT of adjustment to get them and even then the stations rarely come in perfectly clean. Not a huge fan of this antenna. |

| Summary: Excellent for HDTV |
| I used this antenna for for old standard DEf TV and it used to pull very few channels with very bad reception, but after I connected it with my new Samsung HDTV... wow.. I got almost 20/25 HD channels (very sharp and clear, mostly because digital channel alwasy show up clearly or they do not show up), most of them are local (Dayton, OH) but if I adjust direction I also get few Cincinnati, OH channels. I received less than 1/5 of these on my old TV.

| Summary: Exceeded all my expectations! |
| This antenna was used in a 4th floor apartment building in the
heart of Boston. Without any adjustments whatsoever, it was
able to pickup 38 channels, about 30 of them were digital.
Needless to say I just programmed the digital stations and
removed the analog ones.
So glad I switched to HDTV! |
