I would agree with you on this. However, my HDHR4 is not nearly as sensitive on fringe channels, as my Hauppauge 950Q, or even my old Pinnacle 800i. But the HDHR's android tuning app does help with...

WVNY is on VHF physical channel 13. You'll need a VHF antenna to pick it up reasonably well, although at LOS and 22NM, it may not have to be that powerful of a VHF antenna.

As for WNMN, I don't...

I actually mounted the 91XG with the CM 7777 out in the garage attic at approx. 14' in the air, and am now getting CJNT at 20-21 SNR on the Hauppauge 950Q. All of the other Montreal UHF stations are...

Good morning,

So We're finally moved. Yesterday, I put together the 91XG antenna and it surprised me in some ways, and disappointed me as well in another. The 91XG is able to get 12-CFCF with...

The Antennas Direct DB4e is one of the best 4-bay UHF antennas on the market at the moment. I have one myself. It compares pretty closely to the Channel Master 4221, which I also own. There is no...

He's saying an Antennas Direct DB4e UHF antenna, and a Y10-7-13 VHF antenna (google it - there's only one manufacturer).. it's sometimes named Y10713, too.

A USVJ is a UHF/VHF coupler device.

Which channels are the ones you're really hoping to get? It looks like most of the receivable stations are UHF, except for VHF 10. Do you need to pick up that VHF channel? If not, I'd suggest an...

Attic UHF reception - Yagi-style or bay-style?

Good afternoon,

I was curious if there has been any definitive testing done to determine if Yagi-style UHF (ie: AD 91XG) or a bay-style antenna (ie: DB8 / DB8e) typically works better within an...

Thanks, ADTech. I appreciate the feedback.

I may give it a shot - worst case, I'm out $20ish. I think it might work, seeing as the 6" stick antenna that came with the Hauppauge 950Q had no...

Thanks, Teleview. So even though I'm getting decent FM reception from the same 8ft pole, you're pretty sure that the TV reception just won't quite cut it - I assume because it's digital?
