Ping RHF/Steve etc.
I was reading the thread from the guy asking about using a outside tv
antenna. I know that can be done.
Here's my story. I got a pretty big parabolic tv antenna that was
given to me by a former neighbor, I had my eyes on it for years. :-)
It measures 7 1/2 feet wide at the middle element (the longest
element) X 7 ft. in height. It has eight reflectors+ the little bow-
tie UHF antenna I suppose. I have it laying in the yard with it
already mounted to a pretty long steel/iron ? pole.
Would that particular antenna work better if I hooked a rotor to it?
The antenna is a big perfect circle- looks pretty cool. That is a
directional antenna correct? If so- I've tried to figure out how does
the rotor make it turn- is there a certain pole made for that so it
turns easily? I'd love to add that to my mini antenna farm and maybe
(if possible) run a splitter just to see what tv signals I could
grab. :-) Oh- did I say it looks cool also.
TIA
