Works in Lower East Side of Manhattan [Posted on 2008-10-13]
I purchased this antenna to be used in an apartment on the Lower East Side of Manhattan in NYC. The old RCA rabbit ear picked up most of the HDTV stations, but could not pick up channel 13 (WNET) consistently. The TERK HDTVi picked up WNET as well as a few more channels.
Working normally [Posted on 2008-10-21]
I agree with some reviewer's opinions that its functions are depended on your local area's signal. The antenna is currently working normally in my place, however, sometimes when my local area's signal gets weaker, it cannot receive it very well. Over all, it is still a great product, at least it works a lot better than my old antenna.
Digital TV easy [Posted on 2008-10-24]
I recently converted from analog to digital receipt of my TV signal in my weekend getaway. I tried rabbit ears and a digital converter box. Poor signal quality on the rabbit ears made the free digital experience almost unworkable. Several channels didn't come in at all.
The new Terk took a little fine tuning in the house to get the best signal. But now, I've got high quality digital receipt on all the channels in the Atlanta area. I'm 30 miles from downtown.
I recommend the simplicity of the Terk.
better than a uhf loop, but not perfect [Posted on 2008-10-24]
terk hdtvi works better than a uhf loop. With the loop, we had random freezes and
random pixelation, analog degrades so much better than digital! who says digital
is better, not me. the picture is better when the signal is good, but it's worse when the signal degrades. With the terk it is much better, but we still get a random blink or .1 second freeze, but not the 1 second freeze with the loop. Being in a little bit of a valley, I'm sure isn't helping.
okay product [Posted on 2008-10-30]
For some stations, it provided better reception than my old fashioned bunny ears. However, it still doesn't provide the clarity that I was hoping for, so I'm going to get basic cable afterall. Too bad I threw away the box, or I would return it. Its a very, very large unit however, so placing it inconspicuously in your living room probably isn't an option.
