Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy sparkling high-definition programming without forking over monthly digital cable or satellite fees with this Philips indoor HDTV/UHF antenna. The device is specially designed to receive HD broadcast signals from the major free networks in all primary reception areas. If the affiliate broadcasts in HD, the PHDTV1 will receive it, provided the user also owns an HD-compatible television. The highly directional antenna features a high front-to-back ratio that helps reject unwanted signal corruption, ensuring that your picture comes in clear and true. This feature is especially valuable in dense urban areas with crowded broadcast airwaves, where reflected signals can interfere with HDTV transmission. The antenna also offers a flat front gain slope that balances the reception throughout the UHF frequencies. The result is a consistently high-resolution picture regardless of which channel you choose. The PHDTV1--which also connects to PCs anywhere datacasting is available--has been endorsed by several HDTV-testing committees.

 Just what I needed October 13, 2008
I had been trying to get satellite television in my new apartment for over a month, and the new seasons of my favorite local shows were starting. A co-worker mentioned he plugged some rabbit ears into his TV that was in a room that didn't have a cable connection and got HD free over the air. It was then I remembered my boyfriend's TV had a built in digital tuner. I did a little research (antennaweb.org) and found I needed a medium directional antenna with pre-amp to get all the channels I wanted. I search for that here on Amazon, and this is what came up. For only $25, what a deal. With my Amazon Prime trial and discounted 1 day shipping, it came just in time for the beginning of the new season of shows. It works beautifully. The digital picture is amazing, I can't believe it's free. The channels we don't get are simply not being broadcast in digital yet. Totally worth the $25, even if you're using it as a temporary fix while waiting for a more permanent TV solution like me... though this will make you think twice about paying for cable. Make sure to do your research to make sure this type of antenna will work for you, your location and your TV.
Great Antenna for HDTV October 11, 2008
This is the 2nd one of these that I have purchased and they work great. I use them with my HD TiVos to get my local HD channels over the air. This will not work in all cases as you have to have a pretty straight shoot toward the antennas you want to recieve. I actually have mine in a closet on ethe first floor and it has no problems picking up my local channels. You also can not beat the price.
Phillips PHDTV1 Digital Antenna October 6, 2008
I bought the antenna because I had gotten one of the digital to analog converter boxes. I had read that a regular tv antenna could work, and found that for some channels it did. I am far enough away from the transmitters that I needed a better antenna to get some stations. With this antenna I can pick up all the local stations and occasionally some that are on the fringe range.
The price is good and the product does what I needed so for me it was a good purchase.
Does The Job October 2, 2008
Inexpensive and it works! I haven't tried other more expensive ones to compare to, however for the price of this product, it does the job. Found most digital channels and works 95% of the time - meaning the screen "skips" about 5% of the time, mostly due to inclimate weather (not sure if that has anything to do with the antenna itself).
No fancy gadgets needed September 30, 2008
Great for semi-urban areas...just aim according to the TERK website. Some antannae over shoot the signal with to much GAIN...this is simple and to the point. This version with rabbit ears is not as good.
