Easy to assemble and to install. Martin from Antennas Direct advised me to buy this type of antenna, and he was right. With a compass and the coordinates from TVfool.com, and finding the best spot on my roof, I installed the antenna with no problem.I recommend with no hesitation Antennas Direct for everybody needing an antenna.Don't forget, the antenna that is needed, is not necessarily the same for every house. Antennas Direct was an incredible help.Before, I was receiving 8 channels, now I'm receiving 13, sometime 14. There are two towers in my region and each of the two sections of the antenna is directing to one different tower. I can't get more channel because that's all there is where I live.Those who are not happy with this antenna, don't blame blindly the antenna. There are different reason why it might not work for you, take time to read how it works. Topography of your region, trees; density, size, and height of buildings between you and the towers can affect, etc. The position on your roof can affect too.This antenna is very good.

Recepción normal, no esperes que incremente mucho la señal, aparte es muy pesada y requiere un mástil con tensores para que no vibre tanto.

Great antenna solid well built works as expected. Easy install and looks great.

This antenna allows for 2 separate 4 bays to aim at 2 transmitter locations or all 8 bays aimed at one group if i only had one location to aim at i would probably use a single long range antenna but this works for me because i have multiple locations to aim at and receive signals from across lake ontario ...i use a compass and regularly pull in 40 channels. It would be nice to have 4 separate 2 bays to aim .. i have an inline booster i havnt even tried yet so if you have a clear path with 1-2 locations to aim at this antenna is very good !!!!!!

Aún no la instalo al 100% para poder dar una mejor y más completa reseña, pero los materiales se ven de buena calidad, espero sea duradera y cumpla con su propósito

This a very good antenna, with a quality build suitable for most situations, and multi-angular reception that brings in plenty of stations. I really like the antenna, but it didn't solve all of the problems I had anticipated. ....My primary channel of interest is 70 miles away, and even with critical aiming, the DB-8 isn't able to consistently hold that signal. .....I have since found out that this antenna is definitely not the best solution for difficult long distant reception......I am now trying another option I found described by some Canadian installers. ....I am going to stack two DB8e antennas on top of each other and see if I can bring in the weak signals that are eluding me. ....The installation requires paying very close attention to cable lengths of both antenna feed cables......Don't let others fool you into thinking the DB-8 is the most powerful antenna out there. ....It is likely one of the most powerful multi-directional antennas on the market, but if you have a station with questionable reception, the 91- series yagi style antennas outperform it by a considerable margin. .....But,,,, you must deal with the fact that the 91 series yagis are highly directional and must either be critically aimed or mounted on a rotor.If the stacking technique is not successful, I will pull the DB8e stack down the pole and place a HDB91X at the top of the antenna pole, critically aimed and fed by its own coax and preamp to an A-B switch on the back of my primary TV.Update 1/12/2016 - I have been tediously dealing with each factor in the transition to see where the biggest difference lies. ....Stacking the two antennas to form a 16 bay antenna has definitely improved signal strength. ...As I have replaced successive sections of cable with very high quality cable, it has also become obvious to me that much of my problem is associated with dissimilar cable connections that cause a form of ghosting that results in increase attenuation. .....When I get the cable all done, I will post another update and attempt to cover as many of the finer details in optimizing this installation.1/19/2016 - I have gone through all of the steps to meticulously sort the myriad problems associated with long range reception in this installation. There are a couple of things everyone should know. ....ALWAYS start with new, first rate cable in your installation. Old antenna cable can have many unique problems that effect your antenna reception. I found the last cable replacement I made to make a considerable difference. .....And lastly, this isn't the best long range antenna sold. .....That title still goes to the yagi style antennas that are very directional, but this is a very good compromise. ...If I was starting over again from scratch, I would go with stacked yagi antennas critically aimed at my target stations, for the best long range reception available.

I went from being able to get one channel on an upstairs tv to getting all available from nearby cities. The nearest towers are 40-60 miles away. The ones in the 40 mile range came in immediately. The ones in the 50+ range took a little bit of troubleshooting. First off I am not fully done. The antenna is mounted on the roof. It took a few tries to get the antennas pointed in the right directions. Once that was done, the most important channel Fox 6 was in and out and digitized when a 5 way 1000mhz splitter was installed on the line to split the line to two tvs. When this was removed, I received all stations beautifully. The worst on still had 2-3 bars and was keeping steady and clear. I tried a 2300mhz clear sky splitter from radio shack. This seemed like it worked, but before to long it was showing some digital marks and every so often blacking out completely. So I am back to just on tv working perfectly. After doing some research and contacting Antenna Direct I decided the best action would be to get a powered 4 way distribution splitter. It should be here tomorrow. I will try to update the results. The next step would be to get the pre amp installed and try that.UPDATE: After installing the 4way distribution splitter made by antennas direct, everything is working great. Every so often when a storm is to the south, the weakest channels 4 and 6 will go in and out. I have bought a preamp to try but the channels go out so little that I have not yet installed. So far it is turning out to be one of the best investments I have made in a while. I will update once I ever get back on the roof and install the preamp.Conclusion: I ended up spending close to $250 dollars to get an antenna for over the air tv that would work. This will pay for it self in months by canceling cable tv. It was not to much work and anyone handy who is not afraid of heights can easily mount to roof or attic (loss of 10-15 miles in attic). Install antenna and connect to only one tv first to see what reception you can get. Then split the line to see where you are at. This will help you troubleshoot if you may need a pre amp or powered splitter or both.Goodbye DirectTV and Cable TV. Getting over the air TV is more than enough. For the nights that we want a little more and for the kids entertainment, we also have high speed internet with two Roku boxes. One Roku box in each room. Netflix is around $9 per month and Hulu Plus is around $8 per month. Between these two services there is more that enough to watch. Hulu is free on the computer to check out and see all the new shows available. Also we have had Amazon Prime for the shipping, but as a bonus you also get Amazon prime video that also has a large collection of stuff to watch. All in all for around $32 per month we have way more selection that satellite or cable every offered, and it is all played off the Roku box when ever you want. WELL WORTH IT!
