UHF
TV Antennas
There is a lot of confusion in the market
over what an HDTV antenna really is. In fact, many writers
have accused antenna manufacturers and retailers of trying
to mislead consumers in order to sell more antennas. The
reality is that from an engineering perspective, there
really is no such thing as an "HDTV Antenna."
Television signals are broadcast in two
ranges: Ultra High Frequencies (UHF) and Very High Frequencies
(VHF). TV antennas are typically designed to be responsive
for one of these ranges although many antennas can actually
capture some signals in both frequencies. Since more than
90% of all HDTV broadcasts are transmitted in UHF, it became
common for consumers, retailers, and manufacturers to refer
to UHF antennas as HDTV antennas. In reality, there are
a number of stations that broadcast HDTV in VHF so an HDTV
antenna could actually be either a VHF or UHF antenna.
Since most of our UHF antennas will capture
high frequency VHF signals (Channels 7-13), we typically
only recommend using VHF antennas to capture the low end
of the VHF band (Channels 2-6). Occasionally, a VHF capable
antenna may also be required on channels 7 and 8. For your
convenience we have highlighted these 34 channels (channels
2-8) in red in a list of all of the VHF
Digital Stations.

C2
- Long-Range Digital TV (DTV) Antenna
The ClearStream 2 antenna
represents a new breakthrough in size and unmatched
ultra efficient design and gain. Advanced design
software allows these 10" x 20" antennas
to be smaller and more powerful across the entire
DTV spectrum offering consistent high gain. With
the efficiency of the C2 you can have range and
power normally found in antennas up to 5 times
the size in a compact and attractive form. The
C2 delivers TV signals from widely located broadcast
towers and offers flexible aiming characteristics
with an extremely wide beam width of 70 degrees.

ClearStream4™
ClearStream antennas represent a new breakthrough in size and unmatched ultra efficient design and directionality. Advanced design software allows these 20” x 28” antennas to be smaller and powerful across the core UHF DTV spectrum offering consistent high gain. This advancement in antenna efficiency allows up to 98% of the available broadcast signal to actually reach the incoming antenna cable rather than being lost to impedance mismatches. The ClearStream4 Quad-Loop design receives all core DTV channels available with a range up to 65 +miles . There is also additional capability on higher level VHF frequencies. They are engineered for extra strength and durability, using anodized aluminum for corrosion resistance and are easy to assemble.
