Terk Directional Indoor UHF/VHF HDTV Antenna

Terk Directional Indoor UHF/VHF HDTV Antenna

Strengths: Picked up off air channels right from the start

Weakness: None I can see

This is the third off air antenna that I purchased in the last couple of weeks so I guess the third time is the charm. Before the terk hdtvi I tried a amplified antenna by RCA and Phillips and I could not receive any signal strength and I live with in 8 miles from the broadcast towers but the terk pick up and locked in right off and it is not even amplified. The sole purpose of this antenna is so...

Great Antenna!!

Strengths: Picks up alot of channels

Weakness: None

I recently began using a converter box for my tv using a standard rabbit ears antenna. I was not picking up some of the channels I wanted, so I purchased a powered, amplified RCA antenna at WalMart. It was worthless, picking up fewer channels than the rabbit ears! So I bought this Terk antenna, and am thoroughly pleased! It picks up 22 channels, vs the 10 that the rabbit ears picked up. It's a...

It's the best choice!!!

Strengths: Easy to install, good design, easy to carry, and high quality

Weakness: none

This antenna is a really good one. Instead of cable requesting, I decided to buy an antenna. Many people recommended to buy the TERK antenna. Now, I am very satisfied with its quality, and the purchasing decision. The price is a strong motivation to buy this. I want to recommend to buy this antenna.

GOOD Product for the Price

Strengths: I hace come accross this product in one of my friend palce. The excellent reception of this has motivated me to buy this product.

Weakness: Some Manual setting is required, which is true for any indoor antena.

Terk HDTV i antenna and you

Strengths: Simple to hook up and set up. Excellent functionality with great signal strength with being 26 miles from the tower.

Weakness: Size is large, base wobbles until your seat the cable deep in the groove in the base and the cable "relaxes" or takes memory to it's new postion.

First things first. Consider your antenna needs carefully, do the research before you buy. Consider your broadcast antenna locations before considering your receiver antenna needs. Doing so will improve your results. Living in Los Angeles, all of our broadcast antennas sit atop one mountain, Mt. Wilson, which makes having a directional antenna such as this one of great value, in that you can just...

Terk Directional Indoor UHF/VHF HDTV Antenna

Strengths: Cheap, easy to install, free HDTV

Weakness: Thought it might have a power amplifier, F-Pin cable already attached (i.e. can't use a monster cable)

Connected it to my TV (Sony KDFXS55 with built in HDTV tuner) and ran the auto program and voila: 12 HDTV broadcast channels! Of course a couple seem to be spanish only channels, but still get ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, WB, and 3 PBS channels. I also found it a lot cheaper on PriceGrabber than in the Best Buy store, which sold it for 10% more than even on their website!

Terk Directional Indoor UHF/VHF HDTV Antenna

Strengths: Brings in my locals channels as good if not better than Cable.

Weakness: I haven't found any.

If you need a perfect antenna for you T.V. this is the one..picture perfect reception, sound as good and possibly better than cable in all cases..picture and sound. This well save you a overly changed monthly bill from your local cable company. Hats off to Terk forgiving the public a antenna that out performs anything else on the market.

Terk Directional Indoor UHF/VHF HDTV Antenna

Strengths: Provided me with results that were beyond my expectations

Weakness: The coaxle cable is fixed - the cable is too long for my application

I like to think of myself as an educated consumer. I do not make purchases, especially anything electronic, without first conducting extensive research via the web. As I conducted my research for this product, I found results covering the full spectrum from entirely negative to entirely positive. As such, I looked for other comparable products that had reviews that more consistently slanted...

Terk Directional Indoor UHF/VHF HDTV Antenna

Strengths: Name brand; INDOOR antenna; Sleek; Stylish; Relatively inexpensive

Weakness: signal quality/strength not as good as outdoor

It's relatively cheap, and while signal quality and strength take a slight hit since it's not outdoors, the ease of use and setup easily make up for it. Would definitely recommend to anyone not wanting to go through the hassle of mounting an exterior antenna.

Good, but far from perfect

Strengths: Price, size, rabbit ears can be kept down most of the time, "christmas tree" shaped antenna can be mounted 2 ways to fit your space. Good signal most of the time, when it feels like it.

Weakness: When my wife and I really want to sit down and watch a show, the signal will crap out. If I walk in front of the TV, signal fades. Signal can be good and drop out for no apparent reason.

Jensen & TERK are the same company. I did not know this and normally stear clear of Jensen, as a rule. But I heard good things about this antenna and decided to drop $40 on one. When the reception is good, its REALLY good. However, it does not like being mounted behind my HDTV, which would be ideal so I wouldn't have to look at it. Also, as noted above, the signal drops in and out when I really...
