Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Although the DB2 was originally designed for outdoor use, it has quickly become one of the most popular indoor antennas due to its small size and extraordinary gain. The bowtie design provides strong gain across the entire UHF spectrum and it functions incredibly well in areas where a low profile antenna is required.




Rating: - Don't be afraid
when you see 'Outdoor Antenna' on the Antennas Direct DB2 Multi Directional HDTV Antenna package, or that you can't put this together. If I can do it, anyone can.
I mounted the antenna on a tripod in the corner of the living room, which has two windows. I faced it the right way, and voila! the two channels that previously showed 'no signal' came in clear as a bell. Maybe I would receive more channels if it was on the roof, but I'm happy with the ones I have.

Rating: - great antenna that works indoor

I bought this antenna after reading many of the positive reviews, including those from people using it indoor. Previously I used a rabbit ear antenna and was able to receive all the basic channels here in NW Austin: FOX, PBS, NBC, ABC, CBS, and CW (9 including sub-channels). Signal strength was good most of the time, occasional pixelated images, but the antenna had to be fully extended and was very unsightly. To solve this problem I installed this antenna in the master bedroom closet right ... Read More

Rating: - Works as advertised
This antenna has to be assembled using simple tools (screwdriver). The instructions are reasonably clear although I initially installed the elements backwards. We attached the antenna to an internal HDTV card installed in a desktop computer and are using it indoors. It picks up more signals than our other antenna (one of those picture frame antennas). The main HD antenna towers are 10 miles away and they all reported maximum signal strength. We'll be trying it with some towers that are 30 miles away ... Read More

Rating: - Fantastic antenna
I bought this antenna to go with a TV without a cable hookup, for the upcoming digital conversion. The TV had an antenna already and got okay analog reception (six channels), but with the digital convertor no channels came through (digital requires a full signal or does not work at all). I hooked up this antenna to the TV and convertor box...voila! Thirty digital channels in seconds (even hooked up indoors, in an apartment complex). Highly recommeneded!

Rating: - DB2
Antenna received shortly after ordering. It worked much better than the single bow-tie I was using but not as good as I expected. I found that the reflector could be removed for a much smaller antenna without much change in reception quality.
The antenna was slightly more directional than I had hoped and thus did not meet my expectations. Other than that, a very good antenna for the money.
