2-69 Antennas

Quote:
Can you recommend an antenna that would get KMYU if it were a weak signal? I would like suggestions for an antenna that would receive UHF 2-69 if at all possible.
Your question is sincere I'm sure, but lacks the information needed to offer a suggestion or recommendation. "... if it were a weak signal..." contradicts the facts. Your TVFR includes a wealth of information about your situation, enough to confidently base an antenna recommendation on. Hypothetical or speculative scenarios are not sound basis. That said, here is a list of 2-69 antennas (incomplete I'm sure). I'm not recommending for or against any of the following.

Antennacraft: http://www.antennacraft.net/Antennas...llChannel.html
Channel Master: CM3016, 3018, 3020, 3671 & 3679.
Winegard: HD7000R, HD7010, HD7015, HD7080P, HD7082P, HD7084P, HD7210P & HD8200U.

Nothing in your TVFR would recommend a 2-69 antenna. The few weak signals on 2, 3 & 5 are not going to be received reliably due to noise and interference, even with the largest antenna in the above list.
