seems like a good deal. Its a 4-bay design. Looks as though there is no amp. Any idea how much shipping to quebec would be? Don't want to register unless I am sure I am going to buy (in case they SPAM)...

most places carry this for 29.99 (GTA)...so $5 off.

(do a search on the OTA thread on RFD...most vendors discuss has it for that price)

(on the thread, I have listed the channels I get, I have the same one on the pics but a different generic name)

...I've seen it come in at least 3-4 different names...I think it comes from the same factory in China)

Is this as simple as mount, plug into TV & it would work?

I was at the eoutlet on Dufferein last week and saw this antenna. I then went to Save and Replay in Mississauga and wound up buying the Channel Master 4221HD. Both look very similar but not identical. I decided to get the cm since I don't want to get the cheaper unit, mount it, and have it not perform as well as the cm.

I'd like to buy one, but shipping kinda kills the deal... Does anybody knows where I could buy one (or a cm) localy, in a Montreal store?

Thanks!

I saw one at addison, but I think it was around 50. I may go check out some of the chinese places on st laurent though. Of course, i'm pretty happy with my diy antenna... I just need 2-3 more dB to pick up fox...

ive been losing my HDchannels like mad using monoprice indoor antenna! im too lazy to mess around with the location...maybe putting it on the roof when its warmer

r these all the channels i can potentially get? im guessing the column where it says 'virtual channels'

http://i39.tinypic.com/fxqzr8.jpg

also can someone tell me where to buy a cable/RF splitter that splits 2 inputs into ur TV...i wanna b able to switch from HD OTA to cabletv fast...i know they do sell a digital box that duz this at radioshack.com i think but thats like 60bux, a small manual splitter device only costs like 10max i think

50, thats not such a hot deal. Yea thats a good idea, the chinese shops on st-laurent.

I wasn't saying it was a hot deal... The poster just asked if anyone knew where this could be found in MTL

I went to that address, there were two stores selling it. one of the store AA Electronics have it for $17.99. and they were offering me other models of the antenna with brackets something similar to cm DB8 for $40.00.

I got the cheaper one. going to try it out tonight.
