I was about to give this a 4 star review because it came with the last section twisted. Me being the impatient person I am straightened it out with a vise and some adjustables. Although it caused some cosmetic damage (can't see the dents from the ground) it picks up great. Asides from coming with a twist this thing is built really well for a 43 dollar antenna, for an antenna of any price range, and the mount it comes with allows you to aim the antenna up which in my case dramatically increased signal strength (at least 10%). I can get channel 13 which is 72.9 miles from me at 70% if I want but I have it combined with other antennas and had to adjust it to get in an)other station, still getting 60-65%. If there is a high band VHF station you are sort of picking up with a smaller/uhf antenna I would definitely try this antenna.
