IT WORKS!

Pros: FINALLY, something that does what it advertises, right out of the box

Cons: the square antenna band takes a bit more lateral "real estate", but for the good reception I'm getting, its worth it

Someone gave me an old style antennae with a booster attachment and it worked OK, but I had to adjust it between channels, then during a surgical recovery I used cable for a couple of months and when I had the cable turned off I couldn't get the ...old boosted antennae to restore the usual network (ABC, CBS, NBC, PAX, PBS, UPN AND WB{local}) reception. So did some research booster antennaes and found this item advertised at a local big screen TV retailer. As they were highly recognized for being hi-quality and hi-tech, I did some more research on the TERK TV5 and whilel there were very few, (apparently this a reasonably new product), all the reviews I found were positive, so I ordered one oneline (saved $10 over the local retailer). I installed the antennae in a matter of minutes (very simple design) and plugged it in. Turned the TV on and VOILA! instant reception in the above channels and a few others too. I am VERY pleased and satisfied, requires little or no adjustment (for my area) between channels. I've only had it for three days, so I couldn't give 5 stars for support, but with such a simple design, I don't anticipate needing any support Read more Less
