@ GroundUr Mast. Thanks for reply.
You stated that the Y10713 is my best hope for reliable reception for real CH-8, WFAA(ABC). Absolutely, I want to receive ABC, BUT, what about the other VHF-Lo & VHF-Hi channels? The HD8200 is a large, long, and a wide UHF/VHF-Lo/VHF-Hi SOB and the CM-3671 is discontinued (unfortunately).
It goes without saying, for my location, I WANT to receive UHF Channels CH 14 - CH 48 - BUT WHAT ANTENNA WILL, CAN, SHOULD, or POSSIBLY DO THE JOB? To date, I have yet someone to make an absolute, most likely, Can, Could, Should, or state a comprehensive recommendation option for an antenna combo or antenna setup.
I recently bought and tried and HD4228 (60+ miles UHF) and received ZERO channels. It was possibly a return or used item, box was opened, bent top left deflector, missing 2 hardware bolts, and partially assembled. Who knows the history or condition of this HD4228? Could the balun be defective? Is it possible for an antenna to arrive with a defective balun? Could the “phasing harness” be defective? Could the impedance transformer be defective? Possibly. Based upon my 24 Year Naval Avionics Electrician background – I think it is possible. Attempted reception with a 2014 55” LED TV and a 2012 HP all-one-one CPU w/ TV tuner with 4 different coax cables – Zero channels. By all accounts, after research and reading numerous positive reviews, I should have received something and had high hopes for it. No hidden agenda towards the 4228, I wanted it to work!
You stated, “Obviously, none of the UHF only options can offer a shot at the VHF signals shown in your TVFR.”
Question: What UHF only antenna can, will, or should receive UHF channels CH14 – CH-48 at 61-70 miles distance?
Thanks for your help! Any and all advice is appreciated!!
