High Uhf Performance
Customers are generally positive about the high Uhf performance of Antennas Direct 91XG Uni-Directional HDTV Antenna. Some reviewers suggest that it performs exceptionally well on high-UHF channels, while others recommend using a booster for optimal results. The antenna is also praised for its stability in wind and long-lasting durability. However, some users note that it may not perform as well on VHF channels compared to other antennas.
Highlights
Quality
It was light and easy to assemble, which also made installation go well.
The many individual elements are made from lightweight aluminium, so it's easy to inadvertently bend one or two.
The large rear reflector is manufactured as two separate flat pieces, with the whole mess held in place by a single, small bolt.
The mast was connected to an existing rotor that, surprisingly, has not been used once since installation of this new antenna.
Price
Go long distant antenna for a reasonable price.

Thats an odd design choice for north america now that everything above uhf 36 has been lost to the mobile telephone bandits

Fairly fragile for something intended to be installed outdoors

Antennas direct was selling an aftermarket kit which was supposed to add vhf by clumsily ziptying a bunnyear style dipole to the mast of the main antenna and feeding the mess to a signal combiner but dont waste your time

I just wish theyd redesign this a bit to favour the few 34core34 ota tv channels we have left defacto uhf 1436 and vhf 713 as anything further down the dial has become a wasteland due to impulse noise and mechanically build these to be a bit more sturdy

No point optimising for 34weird als u6234 if the channel no longer exists on that frequency
