 Depends on your location July 8, 2010

The two existing reviews for this antenna reflect exactly what I experience using it in two locations. One is in a small town far removed from any local broadcasting, the other is inside the Atlanta city limits.
In Atlanta I receive all of the networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, CW, PBS) plus local channels that aren't on cable ([...] has a complete list of what you can receive over the air). All excellent crisp HD quality. Out in the sticks, like the bad review, rabbit ears work better even though it is supposed to pick up analog signals.
Good in-door antenna March 10, 2010
KK (Anaheim Hills, CA United States)
In short, this antenna works more than I expected when connected to an signal amplifer.
I live in Anaheim Hills, more than 30 miles away from the transmitter towers. Have been using with cable or satelite ever since moved to here for 17 years. The [..] shows I have two blue and some violet channels available, which means I have to install a large outdoor antenna to receive them. Since my neighbor said they could use the in-door antenna to wathc some local channels, I decided to give it a try.
First I bought a Terk FDTV 1a from Best Buy. It was a medium sized flat one with an 10 dB amplifer. I was very happy that I got about 30 channels, including 4.1. What were missing were channels 2,7,9 and 11. The signal strengths were around 40-60. I felt a bigger antenna and more powerful amplifier might work better, so I bought this RCA1600 amd a 24 dB amplifier (Philips PH61111) from Amazon.
The RCA1600 came first. When it was connected to the 10dB amplifier, I got about 40 channels, most noticeble was the addition of channel 2.1. That's a big improvement over FDTV 1a. I received the 24 dB amplifier yesterday and upon intallation, I got 50 channels, incling 7.1 and 9.1. What was absolutely missing was 11.1 which I really dinn't care. So basically with the combination of RCA1600 and a 24 dB pre-amplifer, I can now watch all local channels, except 11.1. The only problem is that the antenna location/direction has to be adjusted for channel 7.1 or 9.1, other channels are pretty stable with either positions. I am happy and amazed.
 DOES NOT WORK September 3, 2009

Almost every word written about this item was false. Maybe it will work if you have your TV on your back patio, but in the will world it's a joke.
I received NO reception from any channels at all. While my old FM rabbit ears got three station, although not well enough to watch for long periods of time.
