Surprisingly Good4
As others have mentioned, this antenna is surprisingly good. Unpacked it and hooked it up. Received 40 local channels on my HDTV tuner (I AM, admittedly, very close to the local transmitter). As effective as the antenna is, I didn't like the idea of its shiny big antennae sitting out next to my nice new monitor. So, I went down to the shop and bought a "high tech" HDTV low profile GE amplified antenna. Got it home, hooked it up and got...HALF THE CHANNELS I GOT WITH THE TERK ANTENNA! The channels I got kept fading in and out. I'm returning the "high tech" antenna tomorrow and keeping my Terk rabbit ears.

Very good product5
All I can say is that this antenna works very good. I am form Paraguay, and I use it with muy laptop. I can see all airs channels.

Doesn't work very well2
I have tried this antenna many times camping. I have tried it in Vermont, the Lake George area of New York, and Connecticut. It never pulled in more than 2-3 stations, and they were always full of snow. None of the stations ever came in even decent.

The only reason I give this antenna 2 stars is because without it reception was even worse. But it is still pretty worthless in my opinion.

I will try this antenna again once I get a Digital Converter. Maybe that will make a difference.
