Title: BUYER BEWARE! DB4 unacceptable after June 12, 2009 DTV Transition
Product review: Well, the DB4 antenna I bought from Amazon.com worked fantastic until the New York City DTV transition that occurred on June 12, 2009. As it turns out, the DB4 (Along with many other Antennas Direct products), although somewhat deceptively advertised as "HDTV" antennas, only work for the UHF frequencies. Several New York City stations moved their RF frequencies into the lower VHF frequency band during the transition, which are not covered by this antenna, therefore I no longer can receive these stations. I just wasted $69. Of course I could buy yet another "VHF" antenna and a combiner, or buy a VHF/UHF antenna, but what will be next......move some more channels into a newly opened SDHF (Super Duper High Frequency) RF spectrum so I have to buy yet another antenna. There would be no more room left on my roof !
