TV Antenna

As all antenna designs are a compromise at some frequency, the trick is to work out what will give you the least compromise. To help get a broader understanding and hopefully clear up this confusion,

I have one of those too but I find it is barely adequate in the suburbs (I can see the transmitter when standing next to the aerial) let alone in fringe areas. I am currently looking for a 12v booster to make it work a bit better.

Hi aussiedingo

I bought a tv aeriel for my caravan recently from ebay from this seller parkmyautoltd.
I haven't tried it in the bush yet but everywhere on the coast and at my home which has very poor signal it works fantastic.
It's only about 125mm high and works fantastic so far. I was recently up at Norah Head and received 67 digital channels and the other vans there with their monstrosities hanging off everywhere was not receiving as many channels.

Regards
