Lots of local channels picked up.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our only disappointment with the antenna is that CBS, which is about 2 miles from my house doesn't get picked up. Unit is on a side table between the t.v. and a window-closer to the window.

Poor performance on all levels.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This antenna, set up well within the range recommended to get channels, could not pick up WABC 7, a VHF station broadcasting about 35 miles away. In addition, the stations it could get had frequent pixilation and dead stops.

Great antenna for fringe areas
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice antenna with a small footprint. Liké the fact that it is multidirectional and is just what is necessary when you are 30 miles East of the nearest signal. This TERK indoor antenna works just as advertised. Could not have found anything better To help me cut the cable.

TERK Antenna for Townhouse
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this TERK HDTV Antenna when we had a townhouse in Topeka, Kansas. We did not want to pay extra for TV Stations on our cable bill so bought the TERK. We are so very pleased with it. Of course we don't get cable type channels but we do get all the local channels and some "off the wall" channels. It allows us to watch TV without a monthly bill. The TERK was easy to set up and install.

TERK Antenna
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was an easy fix before we had satellite - received most HD stations, although not all. Good product for the price.

Provides better reception than other models
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the amount of TV I watch, it provides sufficient coverage but too must add, not all major channels within the viewing area are picked up although their transmissions are well within the advertised range of the antenna.

Didn't work for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After installation reception was weak and pixelated. Doesn't mean it won't work for you. I live about 45 miles from downtown Chicago, and had recently lost strong signal. and gained interference. Talk with Best Buy staff before purchase to minimize trial and error, and aggravation.

Cut the cable!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cable tv was costing a fortune! So we cut it and went to an antenna and internet tv. Best idea ever. The antenna is good but might go with an upgrade but there are about three channels I cannot reach. Overall worth it!

Good Reception for an indoor antenna
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was extremely easy to set up and scan for channels. 'Pleasant' appearance for the living room/TV table area. Reception went within the 53 mile area to reach towers in W Palm Beach and also into the Melbourne area.

Works well. Easy to use.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good range. Picks up many channels. Didn’t get NBC but ABC, CBS, FOX, and PBS among other channels are crystal clear HD. I wish it picked up NBC and was easier to select to not get lesser channels I don’t want.

Less than advertised
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Supposed to be insensitive to how it is positioned. Not my experience. Had to turn to receive different stations. Range wasn’t nearly as far as advertised. Worked no better than $15 antenna. Returned it.

not a bad antenna for free channels
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best reception out of all the different antennas tried. still don't get all of the channels and sometimes the reception is poor and limited, but it sure beats a huge cable bill

Works good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to set up and understand. Due to surrounding trees it doesn't get ALL local channels, but it does get the ones I want. ;) Also "blends in" pretty well with everything.
