With all due respect, the site about bowtie arrays documents designs that have been proven through modeling and use by a host of people. You can buy kits through that site that you can easily assemble and get the performance you are looking for. Additionally, in the Digital Home forums, there is an OTA antenna chart that provides recommendation for a wide variety of situations. These recommendations are based on the discussions and experince of the forum members.

My recommendations: 1) order the bow-tie kit that matches your needs, or 2) look over the recommendations given in the referenced chart and buy one that meets up with your requirements.
