Tookie: Bought this antenna to replace one that had the plastics crumbling after 30 years. I hope to get the same longevity or better. Easy to install and 2 complaints. Main aluminum pipe that everything is mounted to, could be more durable, i collapsed it a bit when mounting it to the tower mast. Also no lock washers for the clamps that hold the antenna to the tower mast.

Bern H.: Just got tested in high winds ( 140 km/h gusts) not an issue. As long as your installation is solid you don't have to worry about the wind. As far as the reception goes much better then previous antenna I installed ( it was a cheappy ) Definitely recommend the antenna. Keep in mind how you install it and your location in relation to the towers can affect reception. Do your home work.

EB: Good antenna range. I was told by a vendor that based on my location I would not get any more than 10-12 stations, but after installing in my attic I was surprised to pickup 22 channels from both Toronto and Buffalo. Most channels are very clear in HD.

Christopher Brown: I replaced a 5 year old “Focus 8HD” 8 bay antenna that worked well picking up weaker 1 edge stations from 30 mi/48 km away no problem pointing in that direction, but recently I started to experience annoying occasional drop outs on my stronger line of sight local stations 22 miles away. The DB4e (4 bay) claims to perform like a bigger 8 bay. To my surprise when I installed this DB4e (pointed in the same direction as the old focus antenna 3 feet above my roof) it did perform like my old 8 bay, but even better!! On my weaker 1 edge stations I gained 4db signal strength on my TV. Through the back end for my local stations I didn’t lose any signal strength. Even radio stations are coming in clearly on my amplifier. This DB4e is a big for a 4 bay, but smaller then the old 8 bay focus antenna was. I am very impressed at the DB4e performance! No more drop outs. This antenna pulls in weaker 1 edge stations way better then I expected for a 4 bay. It’s very well built and sturdy, easy to assemble, and should last many years. Well worth the extra money!

Eric N: Works great, probably a little too sensitive for me. I live in Coquitlam and have it pointed towards the towers on Seymour and I get all the channels broadcast from there with ease. I actually needed to point the antenna a little "off" as my signal was so strong that it would actually cause problems. Nice and light, sits in my attic, works geat.

K. Cormier: do your research well and if you do you will hopefully only need to order once. That is what I did and I am very happy with the DB4E antenna so far. If you are going to cut your cable TV and go with over the air signals (OTA) the biggest piece of advice I would give is this-
When you go on to one of the websites, like tvfool.com, that will tell you what digital channels you will be able to receive based on your address, you may see you can get 10 channels or 60 channels. Some people have bought an antenna and complained that they dont receive as many channels as they thought but the vast majority of those digital channels are not major networks but local channels that you may never watch because you never received them when you had cable TV anyway. I live 25 miles SE of the Providence RI broadcast towers and about 50 south of the Boston MA broadcast towers. I tried this antenna in my attic crawlspace and received all the providence channels (PBS, ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX) but the Boston channels were too weak. then tried holding the antenna out a 2nd floor window and picked up the same Providence channels plus the same networks out of Boston but a lot of...

Enlightened Male: A great little antenna at a nice price, but if you live in a fringe reception area or below the peak in a hilly/mountainous area, read on.

First, the backstory. I cut the cord on Satellite TV (Cable is not available in the rural area where I live) in Sept. 2009 shortly after the HDTV transition. I connected up a Channel Master CM-3016 antenna (a directional, Yagi-style antenna) that was already on the roof attached to the chimney on a five foot mast when I bought the house. I rewired the antenna with RG6 cable and used cheap "twist on" style connectors along with a Winegard AP8275 pre-amp/injector setup powering a 4-way, DC pass-through splitter going to a Silicon Dust HD Homerun (HDHR2) tuner (2 coax inputs, and one Cat 5e network connection output going to my Home Theater PC with Windows Media Center), one coax input went from the splitter direct to my Vizio HD TV, and one input going through a digital-to-analog converter box to an old, analog, tube TV. The setup also was grounded using a 4 foot copper-clad grounding rod with a 1GHz ground block between the antenna and the Winegard injector inside the house (All items are available on Amazon). I live...
