Actually the 2016 has some advantages. Although the other will have higher
UHF gain, it has no gain and no protection against multipath on the VHF
frequencies. The 2016 will be flatter with a cleaner front to back pattern
(although lower gain). If you have no hills or tall buildings and the
source is on a single tower, then the other may be better.

Yeah I'm kinda leaning towards the 2016. But can you
explain why the 1080 has no protection from multi-path?
Are you saying that the 2016 is far more "directional"
than the 1080?

Depending on your terrain. If there are hills or tall buildings you will
want a sharper, higher gain antenna then add attenuators or tilt
compensation to reduce the reflections. Saving $20 or $40 can wind up a
waste of money.

Yes I do have on bi brick two story building right in
front of me in direction antenna must be pointed.
sigh

Anyway, its all just commercial liberal commie brainwashing and
propaganda. What channel has the Rifleman and Andy Griffith still?

Aint THAT the truth!!

I've seriously thought abt giving up broadcast TV and
just watching everything off the Internet such as
hulu.com. Serious!!

At least on hulu.com I can still watch Andy Griffith,
twilight zone, etc!!
