Terk AF1

Manufacturer's Description

High-Performance Styling
The AM/FM Q is TERK`s finest indoor, amplified AM/FM antenna, combining high-performance and superior technologies in a stylish and compact design. This antenna offers superior radio reception by adjusting to a wide range of conditions.

Unique Pin-DotTM Pre Tuning
At the heart of the AM/FM Q antenna is TERK`s unique Pin-Dot Pre-Tuning which allows the user to adjust the antenna to a specific frequency by simply adjusting the dial to match the desired radio station. The result is clearer AM and FM stations and much less static than ever before.

Versatile and Easy To Install
The AM/FM Q must be plugged into a radio or stereo receiver and a wall outlet to power the amplifier. Since some tuners and receivers have either 75 or 300 Ohm antenna inputs, the AM/FM Q comes with everything you need to hook up the antenna right out of the box.

More Stations
By combining Pin-Dot pre Tuning with controlled amplification, the AM/FM Q can make it possible to enjoy stations that were previously unlistenable. Sometimes a station is too weak to hear above the static—often because it is too far away. To counteract this, the AM/FM Q contains a built-in amplifier that strengthens signals. In addition, the AM/FM Q features Pin-Dot pre Tuning —TERK`s unique tuning system that zeroes in on hard-to-receive stations. As the air waves become increasingly crowded, fine-tuning has become an increasingly useful tool in the quest for better reception.

Clearer Reception
The AM/FM Q tunes out noise and interference using TERK`s Pin-Dot pre Tuning system to receive AM and FM stations with greater clarity than ever before. Pin-Dot pre Tuning adjusts the antenna to match a specific frequency and that means less static to the listener. Although amplifiers do strengthen signals, stronger is not always better. If a station has too much static, amplifying it will also amplify the noise and may actually make it harder to hear. The best antennas allow you to control the level of amplification while continually optimizing the desired signal for better reception. TERK`s AM/FM Q gives you this kind of full control needed for today`s crowded airwaves.

Designed for Top Performance & Control
The AM/FM Q is actually two discreet antennas: an AM and an FM. The antenna experts at TERK know that placing the AM and FM antennas so close to each other can negatively impact reception. That`s why the AM/FM Q`s AM antenna flips back—away from the FM antenna—and features patented Non-Coinduction(TM) circuitry to isolate the antennas from each other and preserve radio reception. On the face of the AM/FM Q is a line of LEDs that facilitate tuning and amplifying. Depending on which is being adjusted at the time, LEDs (in red) indicate level of amplification or station being tuned in (key on back of AM/FM Q). TERK has even thought of the little details; the AM/FM Q stands on a non-skid pedestal so it won`t slide around during adjustments.

A Few, Simple Connections
The AM/FM Q does require a few connections: AM and FM wires must be plugged into a radio/receiver and the power cord must be plugged into a wall outlet. Since tuners and receivers may have either 75 Ohm or 300 Ohm antenna inputs, the AM/FM Q comes complete with adapters.

Very poor reception on both AM and FM

By Dick

from Green Valley, AZ 85614 on 11/9/2009

Pros:

Durable

Cons:

Unattractive Design

Best Uses:

NONE

Describe Yourself:

Enthusiast

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I live 25 miles from Tucson, AZ. Without the antenna I receive no stations. With antenna I receive only three stations on FM. On AM the static does come in more clearly but without any stations. I would rate this antenna as not worth the money. A complete failure.

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

For the price I expected more. The AM antenna is not powered, non-amplified. The FM antenna works great. The wires are too short. It can not be moved far from the Receiver. It has no on off switch. It has to be adjusted for every station.

AM/FM Q Powered Indoor Antenna

By Disappointed in Terk from Denver, CO on 6/7/2009

Cons:

Poor Reception

Best Uses:

Living Room

Describe Yourself:

Power User

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

It would be nice to find answers to whether "other users" actually exist. When I first purchased the Q it worked well but after a year (warranty expired) it's kind of like GM (in need of a bailout or new mgmt or at least a new customer, not me. Unfortunately the FAQ's were nowhere to be found through the manufacturer, Terk and/or Audiovox
