Summary: If installed properly, this antenna gives me digital quality
Review: Antennas are extremely difficult and subjective to judge unless you know how to install them propoerly. The TV2000 is a bi-directional antenna and must be installed at right angles to the broadcast antenna. In Los Angeles all signals come from north of the city. The arms of the TV2000 must point east and west to obtain the sweetest picture your TV can receive short of a digital dish.

Summary: This thing will break!
Review: I purchased this unit and went to install it on my roof. I started to get fairly good reception, but then as I was tacking the unit to the roof the connector came apart. I notice someone else here said the same thing. There is really no way to fix it, and I cannot believe how poorly built it is. I'm going to look at a different brand next time around. What a waste of money...

Summary: nice antenna
Review: in west los angeles the arms of the antenna should actually point southwest to northeast. the antenna is good for inhouse installation. i installed it east-west wise to fit it on a wall, just behind the blinds. i can receive about 10 channels now (used to receive only 2). another advantage is that you don't have to adjust the antenna again after it is installed, compared to the pain you take for a retractable antenna. but it takes more time and energy to mount it the first time.

Summary: Good buy for the money
Review: Installed a TV2000 on the north wall of my house (vinyl siding) and routed included cables to interior feed. I use this antenna for local Atlanta HDTV stations. All stations are received with maximum reception (100/100). HD broadcasts are incredible. Big plus - this antenna blends well with house exterior. Benefit for those with strict homeowners association enforcement codes. Easy to install.

Summary: RECTON PRODUCT WAS NOT GOOD FOR ME
Review: My reception was bad with the big roof top antena I already owned. This product added nothing to my reception, another customer I talked to at Best Buy, said he bought the same unit, and it did absolutely nothing for him either. I suggest you talk to a professional before installing any of these products. How many TV's connect into the same antena and how far/long is the cabling from the antena to the TV, this information is good to have.

Review: This antenna did not work at all for me. I only received 1 channel and that was full of snow. The antenna is not made very well. The only connector kept on falling off, and a call to there CS dept. was really no help at all. They offered to replace it at my expense, and that it would take 4-6 weeks to get a new one. I would choose a different brand.
