Antenna spotting in Kenosha # 12

I've never seen this particular antenna with the loop type elements perpendicular to the Boom. That's not to say I haven't seen an antenna with the loop type elements at a 45 degree angle to the Boom. Anyways take a look. Who can ID this one?

The bottom antenna is a Channel Master 3025, formerly know as the 4408. It's an FM antenna.

The Channel Master Stereo Probe 9, model number 3025 (previously 4408), is a log-Yagi array with nine elements on a 135″ boom. Four folded dipole elements are driven.

Hey Rabbit !

So that's an FM antenna. I never would have guessed. I imagine it's about as big as they got?

Stereo probe 9.

It's the biggest FM only antenna they made



but they made bigger TV antennas that also covered FM



and they have brought back the 3671, but it is temporarily out of stock.
