Lee, I have the twin-lead attached one wire to 1/2 of the circle and the other to the other half. If I changed to RG-6 Coax would you attach the two halfs together and the shield to the TV antenna terminals?? the shield to one and the shielded wire to the other? Please, some detail direction on hookup for best results.

I run Cable TV systems, so we have been testing these signals.? Generally, they work better, with the same antenna.? You should replace the twinlead with RG-6 Coax and an outdoor 300-75 ohm matching transformer.? The twinlead must be held away from any solid surfaces, especially metal, and would have problems if threaded down a mast.

I built a TV antenna some time ago for about $12 plus the lead-in wire out of 1" X 1/8 aluminum strip with two pieces about 3' long in a circle insulated from each other and?connected to the TV twinlead. I hoist it up the mast and get great reception. Does any one know if that antenna will still work when they broadcast only in digital? -----Original Message----- From: Bob Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, 21 May 2008 5:51 am Subject: Re: [Liveaboard] hd tv or antenna? Pinnacle.com has an HDTV stick. I used it for a few months while in St. Augustine and was amazed by the HD picture quality. Antenna height is everything.

Some time ago someone on the list referred to a HD tv device for laptop. I just got a 19" LCD TV-DVD (DAENYX 120-240 AC-12 VDC) combo from Wal-Mart this past weekend. I am looking for advice on antennas or any thing that my son can watch his channels. Any help much appreciated.
