Antennas Direct DB4 Multi Directional HDTV AntennaI am pleased with both the quality and the performance of the DB4 antenna.I am picking up 36 channels ( 1 in vhf range and 35 in the uhf range) including several channels I did not expect to be able to receive. I would recommend this antenna for anyone looking for a good mid-range antenna for the switch to digital reception.
Purchased Antennas Direct DB4 Multi Directional HDTV Antenna and set up it on the roof of my house.Application: Sharp Aquos 46 " HDTV LCD 1080p.Area: Santa Ana California 92704Issues: Rotated the antenna 360 degree to get VHS channels, but could not get the channel 2. I do not know why.Any advices or helps.Thanks.
It gets good picture for channels 6-115. This is the strongest antenna I have tried. But I need to move the antenna around to find a best location.
I live in Sandusky, Ohio, which is 55 miles from the Cleveland stations and 35-45 miles from the Toledo stations (also 100 miles from Detroit stations). I can pick up the stations in Cleveland and Toledo and 1 station in Detroit.So that's all great.Here is what else you need to know:This antenna is NOT multi-directional. I'm satisfied with this product. Do not be decieved by that. I have to point it at Cleveland or at Toledo to pick up the stations in each locale (or at Detroit to pick up the one station). I have it in the attic with a Phillips 24db amplifier (12db per channel). The instructions say: "Make sure elements (bowties) are facing transmitting towers."The instructions also tell you: "Attic Installations will cut 40%-50% of your signal strength." I do not know if I am making up for that by using the amplifier or if I would receive even better signal if I could mount it outside on the roof.
Have had digital freeze of picture, or weaking of the siginal. This hasn't happened often. Good picture 98% of the time.I live 23 miles, in a hilly area, away from the farthest station. Good reception. Installed in attic. I would recommend this attenna.
