Default Terk TV-3 Indoor Amplified Rabbit Ear TV Antenna, Video Switch

Terk Technology TV-3 Indoor TV Antenna - If you want backup for your satellite or cable TV service, or if you just want regular TV broadcasts instead, take a look at the Terk Technology TV-3 Indoor Antenna. This indoor antenna includes both VHF & UHF capability for reception of channels 2 through 69. The TV-3 also includes a built-in video selector switch that lets you switch between broadcast TV & a video source - such as DVD, VCR, or a video game.
Customer Review: It works in Cincinnati - West Side
My reception has improved. I have a digital tv but do not subscribe to cable.
Customer Review: Rabbit ears on steroids
Got a new HD TV? It has been said that 95% of americans can get five HD stations (unless you live in the mountains of Idaho, maybe). I get fifteen near Boston. So, this will help you out, but only if the transmitting antenna is within 20 to 30 miles (30 Km or so for you non-northamericans). A rabbit ears and the UHF loop will always help indoor reception. However, the built-in amplifier is a little on the anemic side, but it helps. The good thing is that this doesn't cost much; if you don't think it is muscular enough, at least you haven't spent up towards $100 on it. HD TV at 720p and especially at 1080i is impressive! My favorite watching is golf games on the pro circuit - you feel you are there! You can literally see individual blades of grass! So, this will give you a taste of what is possible. The sad truth of indoor TV antennas is that they don't transform lead into gold. You need a substantial outdoor, high antenna pointed in the right direction to get the gold standard in over the air reception. If you didn't grow up in the heyday of TV, you may need to face the learning curve of jumping up occasionally to change the position or length of the antenna elements or strength of the amplification. It's so fifties! Enjoy!
