AWESOME antenna! Great for DTV and HD.

"This antenna is fantastic. When I first bought it, I used it to pick up over-the-air HD signals in San Jose, CA. Despite the fact that the vast majority of stations in the Bay Area are based out of San Francisco (and over 40 miles from where we lived), all the major stations came in great, other than NBC being finicky from time-to-time. We just moved to the Washington DC area in Ashburn, VA (probably around 2..." Read Full Review »

Don't expect a miracle

"I have a digital converter box on the downstairs TV and an upstairs bedrroom TV. I live in a residential area (in NJ) with a lot of trees, 7-13 miles from all signal sources. Getting a good signal downstairs is a pain. It takes a good 5 minutes to get CBS(channel 2) or NBC (ch. 4) if I get it at all. Can't get ABC (ch. 7) Upstairs is better, but still sporatic 25% of the time. Bought this amplified antenna h..." Read Full Review »

"OK folks...When you take it out of the box and place it on/near the TV, hook it up, extend the ears, and turn it and the TV/converter on, DO NOT just let your converter box or TV do a scan for available channels. Why? Because the antenna is at its default setting (direction, intensity, channel). …"  Read Full Review »

"I will never pay for cable TV and all their commercials -- I get my entertainment over-the-air for free. I live in Phoenix 19.7 miles from all relevant digital and analog transmitters. There are two small mountains in the way, which doesn't help. As of 4/09, most signals are in the blue or viole …"  Read Full Review »

Having just re-located one of our two Olevia screens to another room, we wanted to have the option of OTA HD in that room (we currently have a non-HD box there). I had purchased a Terk HDTVa a few years ago and was constantly frustrated …"  Read Full Review »

"At first, I was afraid that we wouldn't get any decent signals, and I was disappointed that there was no owner's manual in the box. We are 28.7 miles from most of the city's signals, and there are lots of big trees close to our south suburban one-story ranch house.
