I thought this would not only look good, but would also provide excellent reception. I purchased this product with the hopes of getting better reception from my stereo receiver. I currently had a "rabbit ears" antenna and didn't like the look. When I hooked up the antenna I immediately lost reception of my favorite channel. I tried many different antenna positions and various amplification settings and still nothing.The verdict: The "rabbit ears" are back and so is my channel.
The Terk AM/FM Amplified Stereo Antenna with Gamma Loop may work in some places but it didn't work up state AZ in the mountians. It pulled in only those stations I could get before I plugged in the Terk. Sorry. I have since sold it.
Unless this thing is defective, it doesn't work at all. My finger touching the terminal screws picks up better than the antenna. Plus, it works better with the power pack disconnected than it does with it connected. Junk.
I live in a fringe area for reception of my favorite FM stations. I have tried several indoor antennas, and I even set up a folded dipole outdoors, with no decent results. When I installed the the Terk pi amplified antenna, the strength of the signal at the tuner almost doubled.
The station I wanted to get in better now is being washed out by another one but I found it down the dial nice and clear.
