Its shallow depth means the 3010 can be installed under an eave for an inconspicuous look. It's also suitable for roof, wall and attic installations. The 3010's relatively compact size makes it a practical addition to a DBS satellite system. The 3010 is classified as a Medium-sized Directional antenna.

Channels that I always had problems with the amped terk antenna now come in perfect no more moving and moving and moving. I looked around and this is a really great deal for the price I have used a lot of different antennas and this is the best one yet for even a cheaper price. I would refer this antenna to anyone. The only thing is if you used this outside I would get a little tube of silicon to put on the assembled wings you screw on so no water gets inside of the body but that is about it. Out of 1-10 I would rate this antenna a perfect 20.

Fortunately it did and we receive approximately 35 channels with incredible reception and a picture that appears better than we had with cable.

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great FM Reception Written By Don M, South Jersey on Friday, March 25, 2011 I brought this for FM reception, was unable to pull in some station clear with the small wire antenna that came with the receiver. I hooked up a set of amplifying "rabbit ears" reception wasn't much better. The Channel Master 3010 was an easy install. I mounted it to my old satellite mount, (couldn't get HD with satellite to many trees in my yard). Looks better there then the old dish did. Not only can I pull in Philadelphia stations, but even with all the trees in my yard I can pull in Delaware stations from 45-50 miles away including 94.7 WDSD (a PRN affiliate). I have trouble getting this station in the car. Now I can listen to the NASCAR race and still get work do in my garage. I would highly recommend this product. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

It was easy to assemble and easy (for us) to mount as we just used the old mounting pole and hardware. It is mounted about 6 ft above the rooftop outside. It works very well, but we were surprised to learn we had to install a second amplifier inside to boost the signal to our secondary TV sets. I was not aware of the amplifier offered for sale with this model (my fault for not researching it) but would definitely consider purchasing the amplifier with this model antenna if you are located in a wooded or hilly area. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

We're located about 35 miles due east of Baltimore, across the Chesapeake Bay, and have terrific digital and HD reception with this antenna lying under the couch on our living room floor! Wait till I get it in the attic! Best value I've seen in a long, long time! Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Easy Cheap and Works! Written By RandyB, Houston TX on Wednesday, August 25, 2010 I ordered this because it looked like the one in a review that crutchfiled did on an overair DVR I was researching. I had a dish non direction style antenna from about 10years ago in attic and was having problems getting a good signal. So I moved it outside to only find out it did not work there any better. This is on a LG LED 1080p TV with internet. Now you know the background... So I bought this product and it installed on my old satellite pole on roof in minutes and I pointed it in the direction that was recoomended at the off-site website link you can find here at crutchfield in the antenna section. I have had not one distorted signal since I installed it. For the price I'm very happy. I've owned it now for 3weeks. Now I have money left over for the DVR to grab all my national TV channel shows this year and I get to get rid of uverse. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Works as advertised! Written By ReidP, Green Bay, WI on Thursday, August 19, 2010 This antenna actually works as described!. I'm only about 15 miles from the towers, so I was able to mount this in the attic & still have great reception! It took less than 5 minutes to assemble and was very easy to mount! Great antenna if you get digital signals in both the VHF and UHF bands. All but one of my stations were in the UHF band (which would have allowed a different type of antenna, but the station in the VHF band carried the Packer games so I needed this "combined band" antenna! 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?
