Editorial Reviews:

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.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent antenna for both analog and digital TV use - VHF and UHF
Comment: I purchased this item over a month ago in anticipation of getting the converter boxes necessary for over the air digital TV. I was using it on my old analog set and it brought in all my local stations, both VHF and UHF. I'm 20 miles west of Chicago and even CBS 2 (which is usually a fuzzy picture) came in fairly clearly. I just attached the digital converter box and was amazed that I got 10 more stations and a gorgeous clear picture on all stations without having to move the antenna position at all. I have it on top of a high bookcase behind the TV. The only problem is I cannot get a signal for CBS2 in the Chicago area. I've heard from others with the converter boxes that they can't bring in channel 2 either, so for that one station, I have to bypass the box and go back to the analog reception. I got one of the converter boxes from Best Buy (the Apex) that has the Analog pass thru feature. But I am getting over 40 channels, all my regular VHF and UHF plus an extra 12 digital channels. Other than it being a rather "flimsy" antenna, since I don't move it around much, hopefully it will hold up. Great digital reception.

Summary: An equal to Terk
Comment: Easier to assemble than the Terk. Antenna elements must be straightened (easy to do). Less expensive. Excellent reception through many walls.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Exellent product
Comment: Compared to other Antennas I tried this was far superior. I can get a signal in a lot of places. It even got a signal in a basement with no windows.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Slightly better than rabbit ears
Comment: This antenna didn't do much for us - it worked slightly better than our rabbit ears. It pulled in the signals less than 6 miles away but couldn't do much with those 6+, which is similar to rabbit ears.

Summary: ok antenna
Comment: This antenna did not fare as well as an old, cheap rca antenna I bought about 6 years ago. I expected a bit better, but it still picked up most broadcast channels.
