I canceled my DIRECTV service after 9 years as a customer because rates continually kept increasing, and programming quality was horrid, hence, I purchased this Digital HDTV antenna from Amazon. I ordered one day, received it the next day, hooked it up, and receive all of my local HD channels crystal clear. 5 minutes to install. I'm very pleased and highly recommend it.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
