I can't get NBC over the air with this from 15 miles away. It's pretty weak. My cheapie rabbit ears do much better.

That digital signal sure does travel far. Are people seeing some of the downfalls with the transition yet?

You also dont need a special antenna for hd stations.

It is not so bad if you live in a big city and no skyscrappers around.

every time I see this it reminds me I should build the 2x4 coathanger bowtie antenna.

#3, isn't skyscrapers part of the definition of "big city"?

Check out the video, inexpensive to make and it works better than this product.

Pretty useless, sensitive to atmospherics like clouds. Got one.

thanks #6, nice that the video has all the measurements, most videos do not.
funny that he used longer screws than the thickness of the wood

Funny that you noticed #8...

buy the cheap rabbit ears, works as great or even better.
