Is AX-906G2 Stealth good for my area?

I am looking at buying the above antenna. I have 4 tv's running through outside splitter from my cable provider. Can I use it to connect antenna to in place of Cable connection?

Please post a TV Fool report so we can have an idea of where you are and what signals are available. http://forum.tvfool.com/showthread.php?t=4

The performance claims in the ads for the antenna you refer to seem to be hyped, a lot. I feel quite confident that you could find superior quality and performance for less money...

If you want a UHF antena with the absolute most gain and least sidelobes, check out: http://www.wade-antenna.com/Wade/uhfparabolic.pdf

The PB-81-BB sports around 20dB of gain. No yagi or bowtie arrangement can touch it.

DMason has not provided Any useful information at all. To know if the antenna will be UHF VHF or no antenna at all. We are aware of the wade antennas and we are also aware of the prices. No need to put em up one at a time , here they all are. http://forum.tvfool.com/showthread.php?t=491

Cool. I'm just starting to look around this forum. Signal reception is close to my heart both personally and professionally. Nice to see such a forum.

Welcome aboard Turnip Truck. We are a group of helpers with varying knowlege doing our best to help others receive Broadcast Tv and related fields. It is a interesting situation because we need to explain information technology --simply so every one can understand. The basic easy to understand facts are more often left out , I do my best to put them in.
