Disappointing 
2008-09-18
I got this antenna after borrowing a directional Philips PHDTV3 antenna from a friend. Despite getting pretty mediocre reviews on Amazon, that one got pretty good reception in my apartment, but only in one direction (as it was designed to do). This antenna from Terk is multi-directional, so it gets a lot more channels, but only a couple of them are coming in 100% clear. This product had such positive reviews that I expected it to perform at least as well as the antenna with poorer reviews. One of these weekends when it bugs me enough, I'll probably try moving it around some more to see if there's a better spot, but it's so big that there aren't many places I can put it.

works much better than the old antenna I had on this set. I added the digital TV converter and now get all the "sub-channels" (there's probably a more accurate term) in addition to the main digital ones.
I'm using a Smart Powerstrip, too .. so when the TV turns off, so does the digital converter and this Terk antenna.
A surprisingly good antenna 2008-09-07
I tried some powered antennas from Wal-Mart and they were no better than a pair of rabit ears. After using this one, however, I just found that there are so many channels that I missed before. The ones that I had before were of much better quality too.
Excellent, Excellent, Antenna!!!! 2008-08-24
I'm not on cable or satellite. I've been searching for a decent antenna for a long time. I've been through 3 just in the last two weeks! I got a tip about Terk and decided to try it. I had never even heard of it. OMG!!!! I get all the digital channels and even some I never knew were there! If you need a great antenna you don't need to search any further! You found it!
A Great Indoor Antenna 2008-08-09
I had tried to use my old antenna, but it would not pick up many TV digital stations. The Terk TV5 is very effective in receiving the new digital signals.
Good antenna for the price

Terk Technology TV-5 Low Profile Indoor Antenna - You might think an indoor TV antenna is as outdated and useless as the 8-track tape, but think about it for a minute. If you have satellite TV you know the joys of having your service knocked out during a storm, cable TV sometimes goes out of whack as well, & some people simply do not want $50 a month in television channels. All are great reasons to pick up an indoor antenna like the Terk TV-5. This specific antenna has a great low profile design which stands just 4 3/4" high and fits inside most television cabinets. In addition to that, the built-in video selector is a great convenience - letting you switch between broadcast TV & a video source (ie: DVD, VCR or video game).
Not as advertised

This product is one of the worst I have ever purchased. It sounded so good with many features. What I found was that there was no difference in the received signal was the same no matter what mode the unit was placed in. The gain control video switch had no affect on the received signal. It does have noticeable directivity. it was very disappointing as the unit looks well constructed.
Looks Good on Top of the TV

Based on the glowing reviews I read about this product I guess I was expecting too much. After trying the antenna in several locations around the room, I went back to my old rabbit ears (markedly better reception than the Terk --- even for local HD stations) and then moved the Terk to a another set in the house. Even there it made very little difference from what I was getting with a $10 set of ears from Wal-Mart. Decided to keep the Terk, however, since I expect to eventually move and hope it will work better in a new local not surrounded by trees.
Works for me! 2008-07-14
Item came and when it was all set up was WAY larger than I had anticipated. Works well and defiantely does the trick. The only problem was trying to find a spot for it. My roommate went out and bought one too when she saw that mine worked. The success of this product is defined by the area you live in and the signals available- I live in NYC so it is great!
Best anrenna ever 2008-07-01
This is the best TV antenna I've ever used. Both VHF and UHF work great, making it perfect for HDTV.
