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: Don't recommend it
I used this antenna in Houston, TX. It is said to be an indoor/outdoor antenna. The problem is that it's not tough enough for outdoors and too bulky for indoors. You also have to mount it on a wall, which for a DIRECTIONAL antenna is not exactly what you want to do.

Summary: This bi-directional antenna is expensive and not suited to most installations
Terk sells this antenna to people who want to mount it either indoors, where it is an abomination, or outdoors where it can be inconspicuously mounted under an eave. This antenna may work for close-in digital reception (10-20 miles), but it has drawbacks. It is expensive for what you get, and it has limited ability to reject ghosts, multipath and does little to help weak signals. Unless the antenna is mounted broadside to the transmitters, it is of only marginal usefulness, and it's UHF performance, where most digital stations lie, is poor. Buy it if you must, but, remember, you were warned!
