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: NOT AS GOOD AS RABBIT EARS - DEFINITELY DO NOT BUY! |
| VERY POOR: I TRIED, REPEATEDLY TO GET SIGNAL ON A NEW PANASONIC 42\ HD SET. I GOT 1 CHANNEL IN MILWAUKEE.
IN DESPIRATION, I INSTALLED A RABBIT EAR ANTENNA IN A CLOSET - NO AMPLIFIER. THE RABBIT EARS PULLED IN 13 CHANELS CRYSTAL CLAER, NO PROBLEM. THE PARENT COMPANY (AUDIOVOX) CUSTOMER SERVICE ON THIS PRODUCT IS NOT THERE EITHER. I WOULD NEVER CONSIDER THIS PRODUCT TO BE ANY KIND OF SOLUTION, IN FACT, IT CREATED MORE PROBLEMS AND LESS RESULTS, AT THE HIGHEST COST. THIS PRODUCT MORE LIKE A SCAM THAN A GOOD PRODUCT. THIS THING SHOULD BE PULLED FROM THE MARKET |

| Summary: A rather expensive dissapointment. |
| We got this antenna about 3 years ago for $100 at BestBuy. At first the Terk TV-55 seemed okay mounted outside as a replacement for an ancient antenna that had been remarkable until its death. But after about 3 months we couldn't seem to get acceptable reception. We tried several rearrangements which didn't work, then finally brought it inside and mounted it in the laundry room in front of the window. At times we can prop a roll of paper towels to reangle it, but it seems sensitive to slight variations, with low tolerance. I would never recommend this product for purchase. |

| Summary: Very Pleased with HD Reception |
| I went through 3 indoor HD antennas before buying the Terk 55. It was easy to mount and hook up to our HD TV. The amplified signal and correct outdoor location made all the difference: we finally have clear consistent HD reception. I recommend it. |

| Summary: Works well mount on chimney |
| I have mounted it on my chimney and get good signal from 30 miles away. The antenna is directional, in my experience, Changing from Southeast Charlotte to due South gain one channel and lost another. Must use amplifier to get signals. Simple to mount and hook-up. |

| Summary: Works well in my location. |
|
The antenna is working well for me. I have it mounted in the attic. I use it for one HD TV as well as two analog tv's using converter boxes. All three pictures are as good as anything I've seen on cable or dish. I should point out that my house is up high with no tall buildings nearby. This probably helps with the reception. |
