Tv Antennas and Reception

The CM4228HD is a 8 bay panel antenna that receives VHF channels 7 thru 13 and UHF 14 thru 69. The CM4228HD's reflector rods are fixed in place , and has more reflector rods that Block more of the signal at the back of the antenna. The U8000 is also a 8 bay panel antenna , the U8000 has fewer reflector rods and this allows more signal through the back of the antenna and the U8000 has the advantage of the reflector rods can be turned from the horizontal to a up and down vertical position that line up with the metal rod they are mounted on , this gets them out of the way so more signal will be received through the back of the antenna. The V shaped metal receptor are what receives the tv transmissions (signals).
