I can only get one channel using this antenna. I would only recommend this product if you live in a city that has local broadcasting stations. I live between two cities.

Just got this tonight. Not impressed. The channels skip a lot. Set up near a window. Kids want to grab at the antenna's. Just not practical and not happy with the reception.

Get a clothes hanger!!

I live 20 minutes from the Dallas metroplex. This should have worked (even for a few channels). I would have done better wearing a foil hat with a clothes hanger held up in the air. Complete waste of money. Back to the store it goes.

The worst antenna ever
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I bought this antenna on Oct 11, 2009 from Hawthorne, CA best buy and think if it is better than the last antenna that I purchase the Terk FDTV-2A flat omnidirectional antenna. I had gotten all channels except 11-1, 28-1, 40-1, and 58-1. So now I put back my Terk tv 3 antenna and I got all the channels. So now on Oct 13, 2009 I have to return it. Yet on the box it says 55 db to pull in the weaker stations. I tried doing that and still nothing. So I'll stick with my old antenna.

I had an old set of rabbit ears that got 8-10 channels (depending on the weather) Since there are 20+ broadcast channels in the area I decided I'd try this "amplified" antenna. I hooked it up, set my TV to scan and now it only found 3 channels - one came in very pixelated, one was a Spanish language station and the other worked ok.
I will be returning it tonight.

Poor antenna

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I bought this antenna because the store associate that assisted me, said this was one of the best out there.
Ran all my channels to see which ones the antenna would pick up and did not get ONE channel. Not one! Very dissapointed with the quality of this especially since the associate talked this product up!
Will be returning.

This unit isn't any better than it's non-amplified family member that is $10 cheaper, receiving only 2 out of about 30+ channels in the Southern NH area that broadcast in HD and should be able to be received around here.

I live in Los Angeles, and this piece of c r a p could not even pick up the local stations much less the HDTV broadcast. Between the time I spent to buy it and the time I will spend to return...2 hours I will never get back!

It didn't work for me…

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I live on the lower level of a three floor condo. I purchased this knowing I may need to return it due to where the TV is located. I could not get a signal and to be honest I didn't expect much. Please know there is no digital antenna that works for my situation. this may work for you, but it is trial and error.

Requires constant tuning

Signals change constantly and this antenna requires constant retuning. Sometimes I can't get any picture at all and I live in the city just miles from the TV stations! It's a glorified piece of aluminum foil.
