Somebody mentioned using twin lead, I'd not consider that a viable
way to go any more except for the shortest runs. Most antennas and all
T.V.s and digital boxes are designed for 75 ohm coax and even
using proper transformers to convert impenances, those are pretty lossy, so
there is no advantage

have is the better option.
any tv antenna that has the uhf section on it will work for the new tv signals.
it doesn't have to be
Hi, now I have a question for the UHF hams out there. If there is such on
UHF, I don't know.
I have seen what is catagorized as a suburban, and also what is called
