I want to put up the smallest outdoor antenna that would cover all TV
Broadcast Freqs being used after Feb 2009. The log-periodicals are too
"un-stealthy" to go unnoticed by the XYL, but I think a little discone
with
some black paint might escape her inspection as long as I do the
installation while she's out shopping.
Question is - have any of you used one for TV - and if so, how did it
perform? would it cover the TV broadcast freqs ? (I'm aware of its lack
of
gain - I'm within 5 miles of most local stations, and within 20 miles of a
couple more.)
Thanks

Discone is vertically polarized and TV is horizontal. Results in a 15db or
more loss in signal.
