I recently made a TV antenna to receive Channel 5 using a paper clip
and 3 feet of rolled up aluminum foil. It works pretty well, but
there are these diagonal lines that keep "swimming" across the screen
from left to right. Also, there's a little room for improvement in
the picture. Does anyone know how I can improve my antenna to get a
much clearer picture? Maybe I should use tin foil instead of aluminum
foil or something like that? Any ideas?



I'm sorry, but what about getting a real antenna, maybe in the attic?
Bent pins have been known to catch fish, but fishhooks are superior.



yes. walk and bay an antenna, and distroy the fun of building anyting
your self. Keep up the good work mfc!!!
