"Panel" style UHF DTV antenna?
"Usual Suspect" wrote in message obal.net... snip I do like the panel style for the reason that I can arrange 3 around a common mast, aimed at remote cities, and join the outputs for increased coverage. You may encounter some undesired affects from joining antennas. If it works, fine, but if it doesn't, consider switching among the three at the TV set(s). The problem is that the prime signal will be "contaminated" by signal pickup from the other antenna(s). The degree of contamination may or not affect reception. Good luck. |

It will suffer phase distortion. In the good old days we called that "ghosting", now it will be signal drop outs! -- Joe Leikhim K4SAT "The RFI-EMI-GUY"© "Use only Genuine Interocitor Parts" Tom Servo ;-P |
