Product Description
The age of digital TV is here. It's no longer a dream of the future. With it, over time, more TV stations will be broadcasting HDTV signals. If you want excellent over-the-air television reception, this TERK HD-TVi Indoor HDTV Antenna is the accessory you need now.TERK HD-TVi -- The acknowledged leader in antenna technology has just introduced their first-ever Indoor HDTV Antenna. The high performance HDTVi is the only indoor antenna that receives both UHF and VHF signals (channels 2 - 69), providing reception of all local HDTV broadcasts.
Amazon.com Product Description
With over 1,000 stations in more than 200 markets broadcasting digital television as of 2003, 9 out of 10 households can now receive free high-definition (HDTV) signals when using the right antenna in conjunction with an integrated HDTV (or with a set-top box and an HD-ready television). Most antennas are large and unwieldy and need to be mounted outdoors or in a cramped attic. This is not an option if you live in an apartment or condo, or if you don't want the hassle of installing an antenna yourself. The solution? A quality indoor antenna that can pick up all local HDTV channels; one that will look great next to your television, and one that is easy to install: Terk's HDTVi indoor antenna. At the time of its release, the HDTVi was (and may yet be) the only indoor HDTV antenna optimized for both UHF and VHF reception, channels 2 to 69. The HDTVi elegantly solves the aesthetic challenge of integrating a log-periodic-type element assembly in an indoor antenna. It's tuned for optimum HDTV reception with a unique design that uses log-periodic elements and dipoles for receiving both UHF and VHF HDTV broadcasts, bringing you more stations than lesser antennas. You can easily route the antenna's output cable in 2 directions (front or back) for flexible cable management, and the antenna connects easily to your set-top box or television (integrated HDTV--with built-in ATSC tuner--required for direct connection). Its high gain picks up distant stations and its high back-to-front ratio rejects unwanted signals. You can mount the UHF antenna element vertically or horizontally, as experience dictates. What's in the Box
Antenna with integrated 75-ohm cable, instruction manual, and warranty information.

 antennAmazing! March 10, 2010
Mr. William C. Vandeusen (NY)
Great antenna! I now get 12 channels instead of the 3 I had with a cheap $5 antenna.
 I did not realize you can not use below ground level. February 11, 2010

I did not realize you can not use below ground level. Wish this was mentioned in product description!
Best small antenna for UHF AND VHF February 2, 2010
Patrick W. Mackin (Birmingham, AL United States)
While most HDTV channels are UHF, I happen to live in a market with 4 UHF and 4 VHF signals. The VHF channels can be tough to receive, and many so called "HDTV" antennas don't pick them up at all. But this hdtvi has 2 long rabbit ears for VHF. I use mine extended about 1/2 way (it depends on the target frequency you are aiming for--mine is Ch 9) and can pick up 7 of the 8 signals within 5 miles. The 8th station is 20 miles away and the hdtvi will pick it up from the attic when pointed directly at the VHF station. It's nice to be able to point the VHF rabbit ears in one direction (flat, since the signals use horizontal polarity) and the UHF space age thingy in another direction, to maximize signal. Overall, I can't give it 5 stars since it won't work in all cases, but if you are <20 miles from the towers, this should be all you need. If you need a better antenna, the Channel Master 3016 is a great attic antenna. Bottom line is this is an awesome antenna for the price! Note: I am using this on my pc and had to manually add several channels to Windows Media Center as it didn't automatically scan them, but the antenna still receives them fine!
 good antenna for the price February 2, 2010
Tony Tsai (Walnut, CA)
good enough, saw all the games in HD!
however, should of got the one with amp, it would of cost more, but, i'm curious how that help with receptions for the signal. wondering if they can be bought separately.
Worked much better than a standard 'loop' antenna January 27, 2010
Stephen (San Francisco, CA)
This antenna really works well for me. I have had trouble getting good HDTV / UHF reception in my apartment and have tried two different loop antennas (one of them amplified) and this one works much better. I think it deals well with multiple path situations where the different paths tend to cancel out at the antenna. This antenna is directional so picks out one stong path and rejects the interference. Very happy customer here after months of fiddling around (unsuccessfully) with other antennas!
