H Baz and Doug,

Yes Doug programme content in some cases demands a vertical or no antenna at all - the viewing is better under these condx.

Re: Helical I mentioned to steer clear of - I left out an important part that opens the way to argument by some knowledgable people - well I'll close the gate now. Due to misunderstanding on my part I assumed an axial mode helix but one may attempt to use a broadside helix - I'd siill steer clear of these !!

I have designed, built and tested (not mounted - wife thinks they look awful!) a 15 turn helical for UHF TV (bandwidth 0f 250 MHz - almost flat gain 13 db) - The perfect antenna for uhf TV.

RE: Log-periodic antenna Baz.

Regards,

Jerry
