Directional antenna such as and not limited to the CM5016 antenna receive the best in the forward direction , little less at front angles to antenna , less at back angles to the antenna , less at the back of the antenna.
Directional antennas receive the least amount of signal directly on the sides of the antenna.

Look at the , Digital Current Plus Pending Applications Included Radar Plot and see that when the antenna is aimed at about 320 degree magnetic compass direction.
The Tv stations of other directions are at angles to the antenna and back of the antenna.

Most Digital Tv's have Signal Strength Meter and some Digital Tv's also have a Signal Quality Meter.

The idea is to adjust the antenna a direction so the Tv stations to the front and front angles are received and receive as many Tv stations as possible in other directions by adjusting the antenna aim to get the Tv stations at back angles and back of the antenna.

It is a situation of balance , a game of give and take.

More information , your reception location has receivable Tv Channels in All 3 Tv bands.

The Current Tv channels that being transmitted and received in the , USA , Canada , Mexico , are.

VHF low band channels 2 thru 6.

VHF high band channels 7 thru 13.

UHF band channels 14 thru 51.

Look at the , Digital Current Plus Pending Applications Included Channel List under the , Real Channels , not the (virt) virtual numbers.

The Real Channels are the Real Channels that Transmitted and Received.

The (virt) virtual numbers Are Not real channels even if the virtual number is the same as the Real channel.

( So you ask , why virtual numbers??

The main reason is , when the Tv stations change/d from Analog tramsmissions to Digital transmission , many but not all Tv stations changed to a different channel for Digital transmission.

And the Tv station kept the old channel number , now a virtual number , the reason is Channel Branding , the Tv station has been known by a channel number for long time so the Tv station keeps the old channel number even though the Tv station might be transmitting on a different channel.)

Your reception location has receivable channels in all three Tv bands , that why All Channel antennas are recommended.
