Average customer review:Product Description
The DB4 has become our most popular model because it is simply the best Mid Range HDTV antenna on the market. With an approximate 13.7 dB gain, it is one of the strongest multi-directional antennas available and performs consistently across the entire UHF spectrum. It even works well in areas where HD transmitters are in multiple directions. The bow tie design of the DB4 uses triangular elements instead of rods to greatly increase the bandwidth allowing it to cover the entire UHF band. Additionally, the mesh reflector of the bowtie is more efficient than a rod reflector, is lower in weight, and provides less wind resistance for greater performance and durability. If you are looking for an antenna that is practically guaranteed to perform, the DB4 is one of your safest choices. It will pull in all UHF frequencies and most higher level VHF frequencies with a range of about 55 miles.

Great mid sized antenna
I love this antenna. I have it placed approx. 20 ft in the air and am receiving Indianapolis stations from a distance of approx. 55 miles. I did have to use an inline amplifier to strengthen the signal (due to the long distance from the source), but the antenna works great to pick up both Indy stations and those broadcasted here in town. Oh and did I mention that I get 65% signal strength with the furthest station (58 miles) and 85% to 97% with every other!
Beware!!!
AntennasDirect is really pushing their new series Antenna before crunch time ends before change over..
Beware, I order the $129.00 long range antenna.Great shippping time..and Tracking info...
The problem is I received someone's problem. They Box had been open prior, just retaped. Missing screws and the flimsy contact board in connection box was broken at bolt head, not allowing for one half to transmit. It was obvious that the antenna had been put together and taken apart with bent sections and missing hardware. I decided to put it together, due to impatience of wanting to see what it could pull in.After hunting thru the garage for pieces and parts to put it together,I was able to get a few channels from one side..I then sent an email asking to purchase the board or a whole new Black box for connection. It has been almost four days and 7 emails, and still no response.Three calls have been made and they transfer you and then disconnect you..So beware, purchase at own risk, if you need answers or parts, they will not respond. Your best bet is ship it right back... Good Luck!
Like Magic!
I live in an area with reception issues. Line of sight is interupted by the end of a mountain range. Distance to towers is about 25 miles. Analog is out of the question but once I was ready for digital TV I decided to give it a try. I tried three different antennas. First, the kind that clip onto your satellite dish. Didn't work. Then I tried two different indoor/outdoor amplified types. Did not get ANY digital channels.
So I decided to go for a real, mounted type antenna and chose the DB4, based on reviews, specs, size, and cost.
It immediately found ALL the digital channels available in my area, just from testing it inside the house! It is mounted outside now, and I receive all channels at high strength ranging from 70% to 89%. I am using about 75ft of cable and a distribution amplifier just before a splitter to two rooms. It works!
