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.

 Say Goodbye to the Cable Bill! January 3, 2009
My wife and I have been finding new ways to pinch pennies due to the poor economy. I decided that I'd try to find a way to lessen the pound of flesh Comcast takes from us every month for television (after all, we mainly only watch the free channels, anyway). We live in the 3rd story of an apartment complex in Eden Prairie, MN (about 20 miles away from most of the towers). After finding the best spot in the apartment for the antenna and some tweaking, I was amazed to discover that we were able to receive all of the major networks in crisp HD quality. This antenna has and will continue to pay for itself many, many times over.
Good Product, better price December 27, 2008
I bought this as a replacement for my grandmother's rabbit-ears antenna, as she just stepped up to the digital tier and has a nice 32" LCD Television (yet no cable!)
The quality of the signal is incredibly better than standard rabbit-ears/FM loop amplified antennas by comparison. For starters, this unit doesn't need to be plugged in to an AC outlet, which is a definite plus.
It worked with all channels that we could at least pick up on the old antenna, and did so without snow in the picture, no black and white channels, and increased the signal strength of the ATSC broadcasts in our area.
I recommend placing this antenna as high as you can in the room, and if you know the direction of your station, align it. This also increases signal strength, but this is NOT a directional antenna. All stations from the area are crisp and clear, just the ones we aimed it at were a tiny bit better.
Digital Antenna December 26, 2008
Works well for as small as it is, not as multi-directional as I'd like, but well worth the price
wonderful product, better than expected! December 22, 2008

It helps me to receive more than 50 channels. The digital ones are super clear and stable. I love it. Highly recommmended to people who don't want to pay for TV programs.
doubled my signal strength December 22, 2008
This doubled my signal strength from 18% to over 40% - I hope they will raise the strength of the HD signal when analog gets turned off... or else I will not be very happy. Good product for reasonable price - delivery was very quick
