Antennas Direct Named to Inc 500 List

Press Release Summary: Antenna manufacturer recently launched new product line
leading to growth

Press Release Body: Aug. 27, 2008: ST. LOUIS, Mo. - St. Louis based antenna
manufacturer Antennas Direct was recognized by Inc. magazine for the accomplishment
of earning the rank of 380 on the 2008 Inc. 500, which celebrates the
fastest-growing private companies in America. The company experienced a 795 percent
increase in revenue growth between 2004 and 2007.

Antennas Direct makes over-the-air television antennas specifically designed to
capture post 2009 digital TV broadcasts. Company founder and President Richard
Schneider said the company's astounding growth was a direct result of the federal
Digital Television Transition, which mandates television broadcasting switch from
analog transmission to digital transmission by Feb. 17, 2009.

"Television broadcasting has experienced lots of change in the past few years, but
advances in TV antenna technology have been stagnant for decades," said Schneider.
"Many antennas were designed for a different era, and we've been able to create
antennas specifically tuned for the core DTV frequencies. This is a product that
people are embracing as over-the-air digital television will often offer the best
picture quality."

Building on its success, Antennas Direct recently launched its latest line of
digital TV antennas, the ClearStream series. ClearStream antennas are half the size
of their predecessors, highly efficient and tuned specifically for the core digital
TV frequencies.

"Demand for our ClearStream antennas is high because of their reliability, small
size and appealing design," Schneider said.

The Inc 500 list also ranked Antennas Direct among the top 50 fastest-growing
businesses in St. Louis, Mo., and among the top 100 fastest-growing electronics
companies in the nation.
