Terk Tv44 does not work and we wasted our money on it. We tried everything even to call the techs and that did not help. The techs told us to send it back and they would replace it which we did but still no luck. We had to pay for the shipping to get it here and then to send it back so we have been out alot of money for nothing.
We are too far from the metro (live in southern MN) and it picks up locals from rochester, austin, mankato great. I have had this on my Dish system for years. Picks up local HD and regular channels just fine. It is currently on our dual tuner HD DVR and we have had no issues with it. Best part is we can also record locals with the dvr, so at times we are able to record 3 programs at once.
Works very well but would assume that terrain will be the greatest factor in determining signal pull. This is my second Terk TV44 - the former zapped in a terrible storm. I live approximately 65 miles from the Dallas area and this antenna provides 36 channels with signal strength measured by my Dish receiver at 85-100%. A bit of a tight fit on the Dish HD antenna, but discovered that if you completely remove the tightening disks and install with the antenna in place it is an easy job. (Removal of the disks not in the instructions).
I spent at least 1 hour trying to adjust the antenna to bring in local stations which are only 5 miles away. Could get UHF but was unable to get the VHF stations to come in with enough power to view. Very disappointing antenna. I got better results with rabbit ears.
It doesn't. I've had this for a while now. It says it will work with multiple TV's. Only a few local channels can be tuned. The amplifier built in isn't strong enough and the installation is complex.
