Not bad at all
I ordered this antenna because, after I'd seen how great the new DTV channels are, it seemed worthwhile to get a converter box and antenna for my old TV set (that was being used only for DVD videos, before). When the antenna arrived I was surprised and pleased by how small it is. It's less than 7 inches tall. (I have overhead clearance problems, so small is good.) Note, however, that the photos at Amazon don't show the single rabbit ear that extends upward from inside/behind the triangular shell. I had to open up the triangle and extend that "ear" off to one side.
Initially, I thought the UHF reception was not good. I couldn't pull in ANY of the many analog UHF channels in my metropolitan area. But then I hooked up the DTV converter. Now I am getting every channel I knew about, and a few more I'd never heard of. When they say this antenna is specially designed for DTV, they aren't lying.
A few of the UHF channels are a bit weak, and one of the major local VHF channels is also weak. So some people might need a rooftop antenna depending on location and expectations. But I am generally pleased with the reception I'm getting. Not bad for the price.

signal loss with foot traffic
This antenna is not good near area where foot traffic is a regular occurrence. Any vibration on the floor would interrupt the signal. You turn on a kitchen fan or hair dryer, the sign is loss. It may be ok if your floors don't vibrate or there is no foot traffic near by. Not recommended.

poor reception and needs power
Reception is very poor. I have other non powered digital antennas that do much better.

Great While It Lasted (Which Wasn't Long)
The GE 24775 Quantum is a nice looking and easy to use antenna. It picked up all the Washington DC channels (analog & digital). Beware however, if you live in an area that periodically has low relative humidity. I purchased 2 of them, and both have called it quits after only a few months of service. I never figured out what killed the first one, but the second one stopped working after experiencing a static shock when I attempted to reposition the antenna for better reception. It is little better than a stylish paper weight at this point. Also be aware that the blue power indicator light is really quite bright, and may disturb some people if used with a TV in the bedroom.

Don't buy this product!
This product is not a good antenna at all. It is a total waste of money.

Night photography: general tipsHowdy! I’m back again to help all entry-level photographers to enhance their digital pictures. And it’s night photography for today!
 What is the favorite time of the day for lovers? Yes, night. And why? Because there is nothing more beautiful and romantic than the look of the night sky with the huge, cold moon and thousands of stars. And at what time of the day big cities look their best? Definitely at night, when millions of their lights are on. These views are surely worthy to be captured.
But do we always manage to take clear nighttime images? The answer – NO! Even experienced photographers often face some difficulties with their shots at night. Nighttime photos often look blurred, fuzzy, unfocused and lack details.
Still, there are some tricks that will help you to improve the results of your nighttime photography and to take sharp and detailed night shorts. I’ll start from some common tips in this post and then develop the topic in my future entries with more concrete tricks.
- I think, it’s obvious that the more expensive your digital camera is, the better images you may expect. I don’t suggest you pay a fortune for your cam, but a sub-two hundred-dollar one won’t produce perfect shorts. My advice is – don’t go extremes! Choose something in the middle.
- My next tip is first to consider dusk photos. Taking some pictures around sunset times, when it’s not completely dark may help to illuminate some details and at the same time to maintain that contrast so fascinating on nighttime pics.
- I believe I don’t have to remind you about planning your pictures before shooting in order to get a perfect angle. But what is worth while mentioning is that when planning your photos at sunset, don’t forget that every minute can be crucial. The lighting is changing very fast at this time and that may affect your shots.
- And last but not least, whatever photos you are going to take, the first thing to remember when you are leaving home is to check your power and storage supplies. It’s very pity to find out that the batteries are run out, or there is no more space on the memory card in the very beginning.
Keep in mind these very simple things and that may enhance your nighttime pictures to a certain degree. And read our blog to know more about night photography. Next time there will be about photographing the moon.
