Digital camera Review: Best Antenna For Cleveland OH Area
Summary: 5 Stars
Picture is amazing. If you live in the Cleveland,OH area you cant beat this antenna for the price. Mounted the DB4 on my roof and the Picture QUALITY is better than my HD Directv. I did try this in the house but was not able to get all the channels I am getting with it on the roof. I did tons of research and I am glad I decided on this antenna.Digital camera Review: Best Antenna So Far!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am truly impressed with this powerful little antenna. I recently purchased another indoor antenna (Terk) from Amazon and thought I was getting decent reception until I tried the DB4! Seriously - with the other antenna I would have to aim it with precision and make sure to not move it. I was able to grab around 4-6 channels with the Terk and the reception was nice and clear when I had the channels tuned in. Well I just bought a new TV so I decided to give this other DB4 a shot. I plugged it in, laid the antenna on my kitchen counter, and was able to get 18 channels!!! A handful of them are HD channels and the picture is amazing. No Pointing!! I ended up running a coaxial cable down into my crawl space and rested the antenna down there against the block foundation - Still got all the channels! I bet if I mounted it to the roof I could get even more channels but the ones I have are good enough for me. I am on a heavily wooded lot and the closest towers to me are about 20 miles away. I would highly recommend this antenna.Digital camera Review: Best HD Antenna for sale for living in the city
Summary: 5 Stars
This antenna is hands down, awesome. The J-bar and butterfly screws that are included give it a secure hold on just about any surface (brick, concrete, wood). For portability sake, I have the DB4 drilled into a cinder block, for ease of lining up the signals. Use a compass! Don't guess. You'll quickly see that this antenna does exactly what your money pays for and more.
If you are trying to decide between an indoor antenna and outdoor. Look no further. Outdoor is much more reliable ... when it rains or snows, this one has never failed me. Don't be fooled by amplifiers, you don't need it with the DB4 if you have outdoor access and 50-75ft of cable distance.
Digital camera Review: Best I've seen so far
Summary: 5 Stars
This picks up HD better than the 2 other indoor antennas I have tried. Even when connected indoors and held above my head, most channels were getting 95% whereas my previous indoor antenna I've used for 2 years usually got 78% at best. I did install this on the roof and am using a diplexer to share the line with my satellite feed, and am also using a splitter to send the HD signal to 2 different TVs. With all these connections, I am getting 78% signal again, but it is much more consistent (doesn't drop in and out) than my indoor antenna. For the most part I haven't had any problems getting reception so far (I'm about 40 miles from the towers). NBC is my biggest problem, but I may get a pre-amp to help the signal further.
By the way, my box was missing some mounting hardware. I called Antenna's Direct and they promptly sent me the hardware via UPS without having to verify my purchase from Amazon, which I appreciated.
Digital camera Review: Best Money Every Spent on TV
Summary: 5 Stars
Product is easy to assemble. It works great. I'm getting 24 channels FREE & they look great for the most part. 6 are above 90% signal strength & the lowest - 34% strength still is very acceptable. Just take the time to go through TVfool or Antenaweb for aiming, mount if needed, ground, connect & scan with your TV. I didn't even need to adjust the aim. I'm about 40 miles from the 2 major antenna farms & their about 25 degrees apart. Its mounted on a 10' piece of conduit attached on the corner of my deck about 15' feet in the air. Total of right around $100 for everything! The day after I put it up my next door neighbor was very interested in getting one!
