It fails my approval rating because it's has too high a noise figure. Anything above 3db just doesn't cut the
DTV world. Numerous examples on this board alone where people ditched their old amp and bought a low noise amp that improved their reception.
ANT-1008
ANT-1008Frequency Range : 40-862MHz

Plus marketing wise that site flunks over and over for me.
Busted on this antenna
ANT-2075
ANT-2075No. of Elements: 32
Frequency Range : 174-230Mhz & 470-862MHz
Channels: Ch. 5-12 & Ch. 21-69
Antenna Gain: 7.5-8.5dB
Beam Width H/V: H 45-55/ V55-65
Front-back Ratio: 20-30
dB
Impedance: 75Ω
Antenna Length: 750mm
First 174-230Mhz are channels 7-13 but 13 ends at 216 MHz
And no those aren't the Chinese frequencies either
They are the CCIR European channels.

Same with the UHF range they market.
The problem is they are marketing to the US and Canada that have different but about the same frequencies. Big deal? Well what if a US or Canadian thinks it will pick up channels 5 or 6 ? It won't. Or not buy the antenna because they have a channel 16 like I do on UHF.
There is also no way to get that much gain from a 29.5 inches. That much gain at UHF takes at least a 40 inch boom and at VHF a 60 inch boom.
More gizmo stuff.
Plus if you value your job you can still buy American antennas from Winegard, Antenna Craft. I know Channel Masters are now Chinese. Not sure about Antennas Direct, but I don't like them either except their XG-91.
