Yes, yes, it's not a lot of antenna. So, it's not for everyone. -
But not everybody will get off their dead ... behind, and build something.
Sometimes it's just easier to walk into a store and walk out with a $10 solution.
The Gray-Hoverman coat hanger and tin-foil sounds fantastic... but I haven't built one yet. -
Last month, one member was going to put some rabbit ears in his attic.
I went looking for an antenna I had, to show him, and ran across this little beauty.
Channel Master CM 3010 Suburban STEALTHtenna (CM3010) - Channel Master - CM3010 - 020572030106 - CM 3010 CM-3010 CM-3010 CM 3010 channel master 3010A CM3010A CM-3010A CM 3010A 3010-A stealth staelth
It was inexpensive, and adequately rated for his service area.
I was surprised at the modest price.
Apparently he liked what he saw and got one.
Last I heard, he was getting great OTA from his attic-mounted antenna.
Never did find a picture of mine.
Old thing from Radio Shack (still new in the box, but long ago discontinued)
Looks like a Frisbee in the middle, and has two-foot wings, one out each side.
It's amplified, too.
Rated for light green (3rd level) service area, so no slouch as an antenna!
Indeed, that was me, and the little Stealth antenna is working well in the attic, rated for about 40 miles, my transmitters are about 22 miles away and it's a good solution.
