@Stereocraig. I decided to file for a patent because my (relatively) small omnidirectional antenna receives channels antennaweb (and even TVFool) classify as requiring a large directional antenna. With the patent filing complete, I wanted independent certification of what I am experiencing... which led me to my CEA surprise.
Since I live in a condo (and developed the outdoor antenna for my environment), I am concerned that condo and apartment dwellers are being locked into paying cable (or dish) TV bills because "CEA-certified" ratings mislead them into believing they have to have access to the attic or roof to receive desired channels.
@ADTech. I note that the CEA is dominated by manufacturers of large directional antennas, so I assume they are the ones who set the standards. Do any of the standards allow for an outdoor omnidirectional "blue" rating?
