Terk TV55 works good in attic. Tried serveral un-amplified multi-element antenna's in my attic which did not provide a stable signal. The Terk TV55 worked the best for uhf digital HDTV stations.

Antenna must be mounted horizontally and the front pointed toward the TV station. This antenna is directional. Use antennaweb.org to find the direction to point the TV55. A rotat...

The TV towers aren't but 20 or 30 miles f...

Very Poor Performer I have purchased 6 different antennas, all of which received 8 digital channels if placed in different locations. I'm still looking for an antenna that gets all the channels consistently. Of all the antennas, this one was surprisingly the worst performer (And Im also including 15 year old bunny ears). I got splotches of the channels, but this was total junk.
I have a feeling people who say this worked for them, never actually used another antenna. It works, but BARELY. It definitely i...
