 Great for improving FM reception May 31, 2010
J. Preece (Sacramento, CA United States)
Very good outdoor antenna for improving FM reception. It's directional but not so much that you can't receive stations off to the side of the antenna. It's not super sturdy; I had to replace it once because of damage from wind and ice, but for most applications it's a nice antenna and definitely worth the price!!
 Good Balance Between Size, Sensitivity, Directionality and Cost September 15, 2009

When I replaced my old analog FM tuner with a new one that receives HD, I was not satisfied with the signal strength and quality that I was getting from HD via my indoor dipole antenna. It was time for me to upgrade and this was the solution.
I chose this antenna because it has a reasonable price, is a classic Yagi design and is light in weight. I live in a two-story house, but mounted this antenna above the gable of a single-story addition. Because I live about halfway between New York City and Philadelphia I installed a rotor, so I can aim this antenna in different directions from inside. My installation places the antenna about 20 feet above the ground. I was prepared to mount this antenna higher if necessary but it works just fine where it is. Since this antenna is lightweight and has little wind loading, no guy wires or special bracing were necessary.
My reception has been excellent. I can clearly receive not only all of the FM stations in New York City (about 60 miles away) and Philadelphia (about 55 miles away), I can also receive many other FM stations in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. At some places on my tuner's dial, I can rotate this antenna and pick up more than one station on the same frequency from different directions. Overall, I am pleased with my purchase.
Great FM signal Reception January 5, 2009

I recently bought a Boston Acoustics Horizon tabletop radio (love it) and thought I'd add an outdoor FM antenna to peak out the performance. Good reception turned into great reception. Money well spent.
I don't have a local HD radio station in my area with programing I care for so I haven't bought an HD radio tuner yet so I can't comment on HD reception. I may take the plunge, buy an HD radio tuner and see if this antenna will pull in the stations I'd like to hear in HD.
I know that for regular FM reception this is a good antenna and works great for me.
