5.0 out of 5 stars Works wonders, even indoors, 16 miles from nearest antenna, April 8, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Antennas Direct DB2 Multi Directional HDTV Antenna (Electronics)
We have a secluded lot, about 2 acres, with mature (40ft+) dense trees around us. The nearest antenna is 16 miles away and the Chicago antennas are 44 miles away. We use this with our Phillips Flatpanel 50" pixelplus 2 HDTV with its own built in HDTV antenna. With only the HDTV antenna that came with the TV we received maybe 2 channels on a sunny day.
We first plugged in this antenna in our ground floor bedroom and kept it right behind our right: obstructed view. We did a search and found 17 HDTV channels and another 20 clear regular channels.
When we then placed the antenna on the roof (used an old DirecTV cabling on the roof) we solidly got 20+ channels in HDTV and another 34 regular channels. Some aren"t prefect but most are as good as old 'regular' tv quality.

We will probably upgrade in the near future to the DB4 now that we know this works for us. This thing is no hoax but we do think you have to be within about 30 or max 40 miles to get any type of reception.

Our advice:
drop the useless expensive cable or satellite and take a 15$ per month Netflix membership to beat / defeat all the showtime or HBO stuff and add this antenna for the local news stuff. Saves us at LEAST 60$ a month.

3.0 out of 5 stars May not be exactly what you need, April 4, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Antennas Direct DB2 Multi Directional HDTV Antenna (Electronics)
I'm in the South Jersey area, trying to pull in the Philadelphia stations in an upstairs bedroom. The antenna is indoors, attached to a Zenith digital converter box. It IS pulling in 25 stations, but not a major one we wanted--WHYY, the major PBS station in our area.

While researching how to get the station, I discovered two things: 1) Many people are having trouble receiving it, and we'd probably have to put an even larger antenna than the DB2 on the roof to get it. 2) In February, 2009, they aren't even going to be broadcasting their digital signal on UHF anymore, and neither is the local ABC affiliate. They will both be broadcasting digitally on VHF channels. This DB2 antenna is for UHF only. So as of next February, it will be useless for two major channels we want to watch. And there isn't much sense in trying VHF antennas yet, because we can't really test them out til the digital VHF broadcasting begins. In this case, it seems like procrastinating might have been the best course of action!

FYI, the antenna doesn't include the coaxial cable you need to run between the antenna and either your converter box or digital tv.

5.0 out of 5 stars It actually works......really well!!!!, November 28, 2007
By B. Yam (CA ( United States)) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Antennas Direct DB2 Multi Directional HDTV Antenna (Electronics)
I originally used the Philips Silver Sensor antenna, but couldn't get stable reception. Added an amplifier and got more than half of the HDTV channels, but needed to move/adjust the antenna for the other channels (very annoying!).

With this DB2 antenna, i have ALL of the free "over the air" HDTV channels, with at least 90% reception, WITHOUT an amplifier!

It works for me in Orange County, CA!! GREAT HDTV ANTENNA! I will buy another!

1.0 out of 5 stars Good ONLY for UHF
Absolutly worthless for picking up any stations that are broadcasting in the VHF spectrum. You would be better served buying one that guarantees it will pick up both UHF AND VHF.
