Manufacturer's product description
AM/FM 1 is TERK's premium amplified indoor AM/FM antenna. It allows your tuner to receive the purest signal possible. AM/FM 1 features a host of advanced technologies for exceptional antenna performance, such as TERK's unique Pin-dot pre-tuning that zeroes in on even hard-to-get stations by tuning the antenna to the station's frequency. AM/FM 1 is easy to install and use and its compact, stylish high-tech design that complements any home entertainment installation. Pin-dot pre-tuning uses calibrated LEDs to adjust the antenna to a specific frequency for best reception of individual stations. Patented non-coinduction circuitry isolates AM and FM antenna elements from each other for improved reception. Wide band setting receives hard to get AM/FM stations.
Review
I've used this compact antenna for years in a small apartment in NYC where signals bounce between the buildings and often cause an echo effect. It has worked very well. I do not use this for AM reception; I unplug it when listening to AM radio and use a passive TERK AM Advantage antenna, which I cannot recommend too strongly. Also, I've never tried to listen to an FM station farther away than Newark, NJ, so I'm not sure whether this antenna is really an improvement over the older TERK model it replaced, but there's no comparison between it and the T-shaped wire that came with the tuner. The sound is clear and static free, even during storms. I will admit that it is a bit of a chore to adjust the pin-dots every time a radio station on a different part of the dial is selected, though..
