I've never been a fan of the gimmick antennnas and johnny come lately antenna companies

Winegard and Channelmaster are the BEST in the industry and have been around for decades so I use nothing but

"multi directional" is NOT a desireable trait for ANY antenna since multipath will cause loss of picture and breakup

HIGHLY directional is the best way to go

The Channelmaster CM-4228HD is by far the best long range UHF antenna made
And it performs fairly well on vhf channels 7-13 as well

In the tv antenna biz there is simply no substitute for size so when these gimmick antennas claim 100+ mile range, they are simply carnival hucksters
