5 Stars perfect antenna!
In my area, the singals are rather weak. When I have tried it with APE* amplified antenna, only 6 channels were available. So, I almost gave up using antenna and HD converter. However, with “Phillips High performance antenna”, 42 channels are available. It was compared because I used the same HD converter. Wow! The difference of technology! I am very satisfied with this product. Thank you!
5 Stars Pretty Good in a Bad Area
This is the best amplified antenna I have ever used. I got all the stations with just some minor adjusting. East-Central IL is terrible for tv broadcast reception because all the stations are far away. This antenna is one of the best I’ve tried. Great signal gain.
1 Star Didn’t work for me.
I was very dissatisfied with the performance of this antenna. I don’t have cable, and thought this would inprove my reception. With the return stipulations, I just decided to write the expense off. I had to revert back to my old antenna. I wish that I would have read the return policy before I bought it.

I returned this item after two weeks. I was hoping that the antenna would work well making the local channels have a great picture… the picture looked amazing… when the antenna worked. If you like to flip through channels this is not the right antenna for you. The ABC channel rarely worked, the CW was was hit and miss and a few other channels were hit and miss. The only channel that worked well was Fox. I read a review that said that it depends on the location of your residence so the antenna doesn’t work where I live. My $5 radio shack antenna works better than this. The picture is not perfect but at least I can flip through channels with ease.
4 Stars Philips High Performance Amplified Indoor Uhf/Vhf/Fm/HDTV Antenna
well guys ,, i can tell you about my experience with this antenna. i decided to get it because with the previous indoor antenna(a RCA rabbit ear that cuase 10 usd on the store) i was getting signal between 30 to 70 in the scale on the converter box ( it goes from 0 to 100).This new Philips High Performance Amplified Indoor Uhf/Vhf/Fm/HDTV Antenna was able to improve from 30 to around 50 and from 70 to around 90-this using the max amplification-(it has a settting for that) –so it works!!!. i want to put a roof antenna because i believe is the truly best option but in the apartment i rent is not easy to get access to the roof , so i have to survive with indoor antenna. i saw people saying to the material it is made is low quality , yes it is , but no that bad as they said , it does not break by touching it as some other had comment here, and i think is good enough for want it is “and antenna”. so far very good , i know for sure that after june 12 on full power from the company i will get better reception , but i dont like the idea of the digital tv , why? the signal drops if i use my cellphone , if somebody send me a text message , if the people in the second floor use their cellphone , if rain a little ,if i put paper on the shredder, oh god is so!@#$%……(that you know) , the image freeze all time , a nightmare for me , hope it gets better after june 12. but going back to the Philips High Performance Amplified Indoor Uhf/Vhf/Fm/HDTV Antenna this antenna does what it said it does ,” amplify” . increase around 20 point on the scale on the converter box. i dont like the fact that have to be plug to the ac power , will be good if it can get the power from the coaxial cable. the color very good, makes it looks like if it is a very high tech device( it is not )because that technology is very simple on not new neither complicated. i can not tell you if other opcion of indoor antenna will work better but for sure a out door antenna is the best . hope this review help you thanks!!
