not for digital converter box July 1, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I installed according to directions. I have 21 local stations and 9 are digital already. When I connected this directly to the TV, it kind of worked. I got a couple of channels. When I connected it to the DTV box, I received even fewer stations than with the little internal antenna. A big total of 3, as opposed to 5 with the little internal antenna that came with the TV. I do live in a wooded area but I still think I should have been able to pick up more stations with this than without it. (And yes, I went online to properly orient the antenna.) I am glad it worked for others but it was a disaster for me and went back the same day.
WORKS GREAT!!! June 30, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I live 15 miles west from Chicago and I get all my channels clear and crisp picture. Antenna needs to be position properly and it will work great.
works well. June 23, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Running a pcHDTV card on Linux - picked this antenna as it supports UHF & VHF. Before the antenna we received zero stations - with the antenna, we get 15 channels with the antenna mounted on the wall indoors. We live in a really wooded area many miles away from some of the stations. Works well.
Very disappointed June 16, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I live well within the 40 mile range, but was unable to pick up a single station using the antenna on the roof even adding another amplifier.
barely brought in 2 channels May 27, 2008 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I live in a mobile (not in a park) surrounded by huge evergreen trees, pretty far from the tv stations in Seattle. No matter where I put the antenna (even on the roof) it doesn't get good reception on any of those channels. We do, however, get 3 "basic" channels that are somewhat viewable that we didn't have before. Needless to say, I'm not impressed at all. The reason I picked it was because people said it got good reception if you were blocked in by trees or buildings. Keep in mind, tho, that it may work great in another location, just not in mine.
