Hi guys, I was looking at a Tivax ATSC box at the Source ( formerly Radio Shack ). It has a connector for a smart antenna on it.
Do any of you guys use it? If so does it work well?

In Canada it's The Source.
"Circuit City Stores and InterTAN Canada today announced that by July 1, 2005, all Radio Shack stores in Canada will be re-named The Source by Circuit City.

Effective today, the companies Toronto Eaton Centre location will be the first store to fly the new banner."

The Source is now owned by Bell Canada. It was the profitable arm of Circuit City and was sold when CC went Belly up.

Now has anyone used a smart antenna?

I read up on it a while ago. It sounds like it might save you the trouble of adjusting your antenna, but I don't remember finding any outdoor smart antennas for maximum range and reception, So i never bothered with one.
