FEATURES- DB8 Multidirectional HDTV Antenna
Intended for people at great distances from the transmitters, the
DB8 is our most powerful multi-directional HD antenna. In fact, its
15.8 dB gain make it one of the most powerful multi-directional
antennas available.
The bow tie design of the DB8 uses triangular elements instead of
rods to greatly increase the bandwidth allowing it to cover the
entire UHF band. Additionally, the mesh reflector of the bowtie
is more efficient than a rod reflector, is lower in weight, and
provides less wind resistance for greater performance and
durability.
This DB8 is the ideal antenna for use in locations that can pull
long range signals from various directions and offers an attractive
alternative to using a directional antenna mounted on a rotator.
* Impedance 300/75 ohm
* Works up to 70 miles or more from transmitters
* Very flexible aiming characteristics
* Weatherproof construction
* High gain across entire UHF band (UHF channels 14-69)
* Max Gain: 15.8 dB
* Dimensions: 29" H x 42" W x 4" Deep
* Weight: 10 pounds

We are very happy with this product

"We are very happy with the performance of this antenna. We now get a great picture all the time and no more playing with the "rabbit ears". I didn't install it, but since I heard minimum complaining from my husband, I assume it was easy enough. I especially like the fact that it receives both VHS and HD...." Read Full Review »

"I installed this antenna in my attic and aimed it at Baltimore (about 30 mi away). Without using a preamp and a cable run of about 40 ft., I get all the UHF HiDef stations with signal levels in the 50% - 75% range. Exactly what I was hoping for. This antenna is very directional. I was hoping I'd …"  Read Full Review »

"The antenna works great! However, the bolts and nuts that come with it are junk! Use new bolts and lock nuts from your local hardware store to assemble the antenna and it will stay together and last through any weather. I also found I could recieve more channels by adding between 5-15 degrees of pit …"  Read Full Review »

"This antenna works very well at pulling in signals from a distant city and allows us a huge amount of HD channels over the air. No need to have cable at our home... well worth the cost as it pays for itself in 1 or 2 months of cable bills. Nothing beats FREE HD TV! I do recommend a pre-amp for th …"  Read Full Review »
