[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this antenna for almost one year now and no problems. Still looks brand new. No regrets buying this product.

I was tired of paying exorbitant fees for cable, and it kept going up, so did some searching and found Antenna Direct. Although I occasionally lose a signal for certain channels, and have to scan the channels occasionally, I am glad that I purchased the antenna from them. I am getting HD TV without a monthly fee, so I am happy with my purchase.

I have been off cable tv for over 10 years I was fed up with paying 200 dollars a month just to watch television I purchased a computer with a tv tuner and DVR built in and started streaming Hulu and later Netflix. The computer paid for itself in just a few months. But I was still missing my local channels. Shortly after that I purchased my first antenna from antennas direct and it worked great 25 channels. I recently moved into a condominium and was dreading the thought of resuming cable so I called antennas direct and spoke with a rep, she helped me find an antenna that would work in my attic. To my surprise I now receive 36 channels and can continue saving thousands by not using a cable provider. Thanks antennas direct!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live between two markets that are about 140° opposed from each other. One market is 45 miles away, the other is about 27 miles away.
I installed a Channel Master Extreme80 a year ago (it was called something different then). It did a reasonable job of picking up channels from both markets, but certain channels were not being received during specific times of the day (signal strength drop to 10% or so at certain times of the day, and are over 90% at other times). This was mostly from the market that is 45 miles away. I thought that this antenna (two units being pointed directly at each market) would cure that issue. It did not.
With the Channel Master, I had rarely received a couple of other stations I enjoyed that are over 50 miles away and 30° north of one of the two markets. I was hoping that having one unit of the DB8 pointed more in that general direction would allow me to receive them more often. I do not receive them at all.
In fairness, I DID pick up three additional PBS channels from the market that is 45 miles away. But their signal availability is also sporadic. This occasional availability of these three channels is the only improvement that I saw.

over the other antenna.
All in all this is a good antenna. It does slightly better than the Channel Master I had installed. It just does not overcome the occasional weak signal issue issue I have, even with elements that point directly at each market.

I have had this for over 3 months now and am very happy with it. I like the design of it and the fact that you can aim it in 2 different directions if you want. I get a super clean, clear and crisp signal on my HD flat screen TV. I am very happy with my purchase and do recommend to others to buy it if it fits your needs. I love getting FREE T.V. and a much sharper image than what cable or satellite can give me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm extremely happy with my antenna. The reception is great and I get so many channels that I don't miss satellite TV at all.
