Information about the reception element of a antenna and a reflector that is
'behind' the reception element.

A reflector that is 'behind' the reception element creates a narrower forward beam width and the greatest amount of reception is one direction.

Removing the reflector so that only the reception element remains will Increase the beam width to a Very Wide Beam Width.

As an example.

The standard indoor rabbit ears type antenna , 2 reception rods for VHF reception , has - Very Wide Beam Widths - and is a Bi Directional Antenna.

The UHF reception Loop that is part of the standard indoor rabbit ears type antenna is a single reception element and has Very Wide Beam Widths and is also Bi Directional.

The same situation also applies to the CS4 UHF antenna UHF reception Loops.

With the reflector screens removed , the CS4 has Very Wide Beam Widths and is Bi Directional.

Receiving on both sides of the CS4 antenna.

My evaluation is , the CS4 antenna with no reflector screens , will receive the groups of Tv stations to the , North West and North East.
