Product Description
TERK HD-TVi -- The acknowledged leader in antenna technology has just introduced their first-ever Indoor HDTV Antenna. The high performance HDTVi is the only indoor antenna that receives both UHF and VHF signals (channels 2 - 69), providing reception of all local HDTV broadcasts.

Amazon.com Product Description
With over 1,000 stations in more than 200 markets broadcasting digital television as of 2003, 9 out of 10 households can now receive free high-definition (HDTV) signals when using the right antenna in conjunction with an integrated HDTV (or with a set-top box and an HD-ready television). Most antennas are large and unwieldy and need to be mounted outdoors or in a cramped attic. This is not an option if you live in an apartment or condo, or if you don't want the hassle of installing an antenna yourself. The solution? A quality indoor antenna that can pick up all local HDTV channels; one that will look great next to your television, and one that is easy to install: Terk's HDTVi indoor antenna.

At the time of its release, the HDTVi was (and may yet be) the only indoor HDTV antenna optimized for both UHF and VHF reception, channels 2 to 69. The HDTVi elegantly solves the aesthetic challenge of integrating a log-periodic-type element assembly in an indoor antenna. It's tuned for optimum HDTV reception with a unique design that uses log-periodic elements and dipoles for receiving both UHF and VHF HDTV broadcasts, bringing you more stations than lesser antennas.

You can easily route the antenna's output cable in 2 directions (front or back) for flexible cable management, and the antenna connects easily to your set-top box or television (integrated HDTV--with built-in ATSC tuner--required for direct connection).

Its high gain picks up distant stations and its high back-to-front ratio rejects unwanted signals. You can mount the UHF antenna element vertically or horizontally, as experience dictates.

What's in the Box
Antenna with integrated 75-ohm cable, instruction manual, and warranty information.

4 out of 5 stars Works in Lower East Side of Manhattan   October 13, 2008
I purchased this antenna to be used in an apartment on the Lower East Side of Manhattan in NYC. The old RCA rabbit ear picked up most of the HDTV stations, but could not pick up channel 13 (WNET) consistently. The TERK HDTVi picked up WNET as well as a few more channels.


5 out of 5 stars Terk HDTVa Antenna   October 13, 2008
I purchased this antenna for my Toshiba 30 HDTV set which does not have a ATSC(digital) converter. This antenna is great!! Not only can I receive HDTV and DTV signals from the local stations 30 miles away, but I can actually receive digital signals as far as Philadelphia-150 miles away with good reception!! When weather conditions are favorable, you can receive much more than your local stations. Highly Recommended for free HDTV reception.


1 out of 5 stars Bad design   October 4, 2008
Ever since I gave up cable TV due to higher cost and poor program choices, I've been looking for a better set of 'rabbit ears' to get free over the air broadcasts. I mostly just enjoy and watch PBS and educational programming these days, the rest is just so much posturing and nonsense, not to mention the commercials on most cable channels that do nothing but insult the intelligence of American viewers.

Design issue
If you extend the rabbit ears fully the unit falls over, really stupid (read moronic) design and the engineer(s) that designed it need to go back to school and get a real degree.

I immediately returned it to BestBuy and got another design that does not fall over when trying to actually put the device in standard use.

Inconsistent reception. Has to be adjusted constantly. Is an issue for almost every single channel.
