Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Terk Technology HDTVi VHF/UHF HDTV Indoor Antenna
Customer Review: Works Great!! Even with 50 feet of Coaxial Cable.
Summary: 5 Stars
I previously had an RCA amplified Rabbit Ear/donut UHF setup. I always had to sacrifce a couple of channels to recieve others in the best reception.
The Terk does not have this problem, and even recieves a channel that always had a weak signal on the RCA setup. (Note: I did have to set it up at a certain angle to get 1 channel that the RCA rig couldn't)
I was very surprised at how much stronger the signals were and that all of my channel lineup was coming in clearly. All of this in spite of the Terk not being amplified and I have to connect the antennae( up in my loft) to my TV downstairs via 50 feet of coaxial cable.
The HDTV antennae is really just a higher performance UHF antennae if you don't want to do any research about it. The UHF channels come in great. And the VHF looks great as well.
Great product, I recommend!
Customer Review: Works well for me

I bought this to improve reception of analog whip antenna that came with Pinnacle PCTV Ultimate USB stick digital/analog tuner.
UHF: It picked up 23 digital channels, including five from Nashville 50 miles away, and some local UHF analog channels, and without an amplifier.
VHF: It picked up some analog channels from Nashville 50 miles away, but not too good, and picked up one local VHF analog channel. I can't test digital VHF channels, there are no digital VHF channels in my area yet, but I will check that after the transition to digital when some stations from Nashville will be broadcasting in digital on VHF channels.
The signal strength and quality was very good if I pointed the antenna in the right direction, much better than with the whip antenna that came with the Pinnacle PCTV USB tuner.
Customer Review: Great indoor antenna
Summary: 5 Stars
I checked multiple reviews all over the internet for the best over-the-air antenna for my area, which was this antenna. Luckily I'm in a great area for getting 40 OTA channels well, all coming from the same direction. This worked great out of the box. I didn't just look on [...], but also many other sites.
I figured that most of the shows I watch are on the network channels, which come in great with the antenna, HD and all. I can get most of the rest of what I want to watch, like Netflix and lots of other TV, from my laptop. If I have to give up Food Network, so be it. Just trying to find out how best to get more sports for my husband.
My new TV has a TV guide explaining what stations were on what channels. I set my favorites out of those. Great.
Customer Review: Very Good Indoor HDTV Antenna
Summary: 5 Stars
When I found out my DirecTV DVR will work with an over the air antenna, I immediatley went online for antenna reviews. As my two favorite brick and mortar stores for AV acessories are Radio Shack and Best Buy, I went for the highest customer rated one at the lowest price. I bought this online for like $45 at Radio Shack. Stupid me..should have checked here. This antenna is awesome. I get all my local channels in high def without having to move the antenna around at all. I liked it so much, I bought a second one at Best Buy and paid MORE for our old bedroom TV using a digital converter. I decided to get another digital converter and hook it to a little flip down LCD TV/DVD player in our kitchen. This time I'm getting it right and buying it here. Bottom line: It works.Customer Review: The best so far

I've had 2 of these antennas --- antennae? --- for 3 years. Since I live close to a big city, I can pull in 16 channels with it. It's super easy to set up and run through a VCR if you want. When local channels first started broadcasting in HDTV picture quality was fantastic. What I don't know right now is the effect of the digital TV conversion box on this antenna. I ordered one of those but haven't received it yet. Maybe I can come back and edit this review.
I'm baaaack ! I bought a Sansonic FT300A DTV converter. Between that and this antenna, I pull in 18 stations with very clear pictures. It took several agonizing tries to get the antenna set in the right direction for all channels but I got it and duct-taped it on the spot.
