Lower UHF channel question

Thanks again Electron, I appreciate you fast answers

Last one hopefully: I was about to place the order for the hardware and noticed that they claim the winegard HD7698P antenna is designed for channels 7-69 on most sites that carry it. The radar plot shows two channel designations (Real and Virtual)... so lets say WDIV-DT (NBC), shows Real channel of 45, but virtual of 4.1. So my question is when the antenna says it's rated for channels 7-69, are they referring to what I see as the Real or the Virtual.

The reason I'm asking is that I've seen other antennas that claim LOW-VHF and state it's good for channels 2-51 (ie. Winegard HD7084P). So, since on my radar map, if I go by the Virtual channel column, I would be able to get FOX and NBC if I went with this model. I do see that it has a shorter range (60 vs 65).

Looking forward to your response.
Matt
