Terk HDTVo Amplified Outdoor HDTV Antenna

HDTVo

Strengths: Excellent reception. Modern design.

Weakness: Can't be used on aluminum siding. Short mast.

HDTVo is not your average outdoor antenna. Besides it's modern design it provides excellent reception, even in rural areas. There were other antennas advertising 90 mile range, it only picked up 1 channel. I was skepitcal about getting the HDTVo since it only had a smaller range. It was a one directional powered antenna and has a wide array so I gave it a try. As long as you aim towards the metro...

HDTVO -- lots of performance in a small package

Strengths: Small, easy set up, easy adjustment

Weakness: none noted

I had been looking for some time for a SMALL HDTV antenna that would have the ability to pull in digital stations (approx. 30 mi. from our home) without having to have a LARGE array on the side of my house, or mess with an attic installation. The Audiovox (Terk) HDTVO Outdoor HDTV antenna does a great job. It installed within minutes. I get great signal (the amplifier is simple and easy to use --...

HDTVO

Strengths: Lightweight; great reception!

Weakness: None

Just switched to DISH TV and wanted to mount my older Terk Stealth-Tena...but it's just too heavy for the mount that holds the DISH TV. Bought the EZDish omni-directional and tried that; not at all happy with the signal strength (picture). The HDTVO is just right....light weight...and great signal strengths. Why pay DISH TV $5.00 per month and still NOT get HD TV? This IS the way to go folks!

Finally I'm happy!

Strengths: easy installation, light weight, and good reception

Weakness: Nothing, but it's be nice if a small compass is added to help with pointing the antenna to the right direction.

I live in a suburb near SF. My apartment is about 28 miles away (according to antennaweb.org) from the major radio tower that carries signals of local NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and PBS stations. I tried one Radioshack indoor/outdoor amplified atenna, one RCA indoor atenna, one Terk indoor (HDTVa), and one Terk outdoor (HDTVs). The Radioshack one always had some stations missing; the RCA and Terk HDTVa...

Great Antenna for Attic

Strengths: Easy to mount - Picks up lots of digital and analog channels - UHF and VHF - Amplified, for long cable runs - Works in all weather conditions - Can be hidden in an attic, and still works.

Weakness: Big and Ugly - Needs a discreet location - Wiring needs to be run

I purchased this when I got a digital LCD TV with digital tuner, as I did not want cable, and the over the air is 1080i quality (better than cable). My old rabbit ears worked OK, except in bad weather, when the digital transmission broke up. Luckily I have an attic crawl space with a gable wall facing the broadcast antennas 10 miles away. This antenna fits very well there and was easy to bolt to...

2 thumbs up on this HDTV Antenna

Strengths: Design (easy on the eye), easy to handle, great range

Weakness: price. shop around and you can get a good deal.

I installed the antenna in the attic about 25 miles from the Buffalo, NY stations and 40+ miles from the Canada stations. I was surprised to find it worked great. I might move it to the outside wall of the attic to pickup more (or better quality) stations. In the attic is nice however, so that I can adjust the direction. It's a directional antenna so which way its pointing matters. Shop around...

Terk HDTVo Antenna

Strengths: Good reception, even when not amplified

Weakness: A little bigger than you'd expect from a picture

The antenna is a semi-circle about 3 ft in diameter. It s designed to work in a blue spectrum as defined by antennaweb.org. It is easy to assemble and install and works as advertised. I mounted it in an attic, although it can me attached outdoors as well. It can be used with enclosed amplifier.
