Innovation will be key. Yes, a 6 meter vertical is large. But, what if you
bent that quarter wave into an odd shape? Think fractals, cloverleafs, and
other HORIZONATL elements. Comparing what we'd HAVE to use compared to a TV
Yagi is apples to oranges. Besides, most TV antennas I have ever met are
Log Periodic Dipole arrays, NOT Yagis. Why? Because they have to be
engineered to operate in the ENTIRE TV spectrum, NOT a 6 MHz segment.
Hey Mike...
I was just using the size as a reference as well as the tv antenna. THe
longest elements on a TV antenna is 6m.
yes log periodic is the correct terminology :-) but its still a yagi of
sorts.
I agree that innovation will be the key. remember the top part of
lo-band is 88 mHz. There is probably a way to build a multi-TV channel
antenna. Look at HF verticals or vhf/uhf mobile antennas.
