I purchased the Lava HD2605, received it with in 5 days including the weekend. I hadn't realized that the DVR came with it so that was an added bonus for me. I didn't put it up right away due to I hadn't received the surge/ground protector (I didn't want to keep climbing on the roof lol). I ended up putting the antenna up before I received the surge protect since they said it was going to be about 5 days. I was so glad I did put the antenna up. I'm so thrilled at how good the pictures are with the OTA antenna! My mom is also so amazed too, every channel I get is crystal clear and I've never seen such crystal clear pictures. Right now I'm getting 25 channels and I'm trilled with that but I know once I find what direction Nashville is from my house I'll get more channels. My antenna is close to 30 feet off the ground. Another thing is the rota-tor box has to be with in 50 feet of the antenna. (Ifigured this out when I hooked it all up and it wouldn't rotate, had to go back and read directions). I had another OTA antenna prior to this one and I only picked up 6 channels which it said it was to be 150 mile radius as well. But wasn't case and then the motor went out on the rotator so got a refund, then I purchased this antenna. Which I'm so so so happy with antenna. I have 3 of my neighbors interested in this antenna set up once I work out the kinks as in getting the direction of Nashville channels.
We have had a couple of bad storms extremely high winds, rain and hail and thank heavens the antenna stood up to it and I didn't lose TV during it. Depending on what channel you were watching it may have gotten a bit static through it but that's about all I've encountered. I live in a very rural area, in the valley lots and lots of trees in the views where Nashville is about 85+ miles away and Jackson is 60+ miles, Murray KY is I think 30 or so miles and I'm getting Jackson and KY channels with no problems as wells as some others.
I'm so happy with the customer service of this company it wow's me. I emailed the company about the surge/ground I hadn't received and had a reply the next day. Once I responded back to them it was shipped out immediately and I had the tracking number as well. I just love being able to email customer service instead of calling and going through all this automated crap before getting to speak to someone. So I'm so happy with my antenna and the service. I would highly recommend this antenna and company to anyone.
I've read some reviews that said Mike would scam you, well I was working with Mike directly via the first email I sent to this company. Let me say he was great, professional and sent me the surge protector/ground unit right away along with the tracking numbers. So for me I had great success with working with him. All I can say is I'm so happy, happy and like I said my neighbors and mother can't wait for me to figure out the exact direction of Nashville. Once I do then they're going to order it if I'm totally happy with getting more channels. Which of course who wouldn't be. I never paid for cable, satellite or anything like that since for me it's too expensive for all the commercials and there's never anything on I want to watch. I do have Amazon prime and the fire stick as well.
