Works Good
This works well, I will say I recieved more channels on my Radio Shack indoor Antenna but not all of them strong, this picked up less channels (about half, and YES I tried pointing in all directions) but the channels that it received came in full strength! Which was a lot better than the $50 one I was using. Pixelating channels gets real old, real quick so I'm happy with this and NO MORE CABLE BILL!!!!!!!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

DB8-E worst than rabbit ears antenna!!
This thing is junk!!! Installed on a 60ft tower, all new coax to the tv. It Looks impressive very heavy Contruction. Horrible performance, got more channels from a cheap amplified indoor antenna that cost $28. This thing should be outlawed for what it cost, might as well just burn ur money for the heat!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Db8E
First I tried it right in livingroom. I picked up several channels nice and clear. Then I tried it out on the front porch. I picked up 14 channels nice and clear. Next I installed it in my garage attic picking 30 channels clear. Then I added a channel master rotor. It made things a lot easier to move the antenna to the best position. I was getting some pixilation on a couple of channels so I decided to add the winegard lna 200 amplifier . I live over 53 miles from most of the pittsburgh towers some much closer. All the channels were improved. Some didn't need improving but the amp did not cause any problem. I am very happy with The DB8E antenna I couldn't ask for more. Just watched beach party lots of old memories. If your thinking about buying this antenna you won't go wrong. Just make sure it's right for you. I did a lot of research before I made this choice for us. Hope this helps .Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great antenna for rural areas
A bit bigger than I expected, however after easy assembly and mounting on a pole, it picks up very well. I tried an indoor window unit and got only a pbs station. With this one I have 35 channels and I am in a rural area 55 miles south of Pittsburgh. Got tired of the satellite dish company fighting with the local providers and dropping them. Very pleased with this antenna and the picture on the local channels is much better.

Recommended for stations 40 to 50 miles away
This antenna was installed with a RCA outdoor preamplifier. I live 55 miles east of Pittsburgh. Most of the transmitting towers are 47 miles away - way the crow flies. I get channels 2, 4, 22, 40, 53 Pittsburgh / Greensburg . I also get ch 6, Johnstown - which is in a opposite direction 110 degrees 35 miles - but, all bays are facing Pittsburgh. Ch 11 is 62 miles away and rarely comes in. The other 6 channels come in most of the time, (97% reliability for ch's 2,4,6,40), (initially 50% reliability for ch's 22,53 - ghost channel cancellation -- after careful positioning of the antenna, reliability went to 95%). The antenna is 16' above the ground - porch roof. Signal strength for the channels varies 45 to 75 most days - can hit 90 for ch's 2 or 4 under best atmospheric conditions - (LG TV tuner display). I have 2 mountain tops between my antenna and Pittsburgh, for the signal to go around - 2 edge obstruction. The first mountain top is 1/2 mile away, 7 degree rise. No trees are in the way. I get no VHF channels, just UHF. Caution: some of the rivets in the assembly were loose (bad electrical contact probable). I tightened the rivets up. Also the antenna requires a heavy duty (satellite dish) mount, mast height 40" to 60"

Great antenna
Tried a few of the cheap ones that claim to be able to pick up channels up to 60 miles away. None of them would get more than 4. Decided to spend the money after doing more research and bought this antenna. Easy to assemble and install. I now get 40+ channels. I have an 80' tree and a hill behind my house that it seems to get signal through. I also have it mounted on my old satellite TV pole about 5' off the ground.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great reception.
Antenna was easy to assemble with the directions and installing it on the roof and using a compass to line it up was less than 4 hrs including using antenna point on the web for compass directions. Am getting over 48 stations in HD perfectly.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

No more cable bill.
Well manufactured, light-weight and comes with great instructions. Most important it picks up a ton of channels in HD. I get 75 channels. it has a little water-tight connection box that closes over the connections.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
