Channel Master 2016 HDTV UHF/ HI-VHF Compact TV Antenna

Most TV antennas (99.9%) that we have grown accustomed to seeing these past decades are actually a combination of Corner Reflector and Yagi, with the long nose in front leading directly to the first reflector panels that physically comprise the Corner Reflector for capture of UHF signals, and the long outward elements bringing up the rear of the antenna comprising the Yagi component of the antenna for VHF reception. Now you can understand why when examining gain and range data for antennas, the differences in the same antenna are delineated along VHF/UHF categories. Two antennas in one is what you get; with the characteristics of VHF/UHF reception with same basic antenna design being so diverse.

Those whose long VHF Yagi reflector components form more of a “V” shape (like this one!) as opposed to coming out from the boom perfectly perpendicular are shaping the reception pattern to have a broader beam-width, for those markets where the TV station have several Transmitter locations around town that are close but not collocated. Many Customers have seen success in using combining more than one antenna's signals together (a 2-way splitter used in reverse). For Example; with a UHF for Signals in one Direction and a VHF in another (or two UHF's, or two VHF's, so forth and and so on). This has given many the ability to capture signals in different directions, yet without the need of a Rotor to go back and Forth and in between. Any Model and Make of Antenna(s) can be combined in this manner and will maximize the Gains coming out of all Antennas utilized in this fashion!
