Howdy! Tom and Roy,
Looking at my TV Antenna in some old photos using Irfanview,
and then holding a CTRL key down and spinning the mouse wheel to
Zoom In I don't see any Crossing of the wires along side of the
boom, as it would be if it was a Log Periodic Antenna (LPA).
Those wires run parallel to the boom so that makes the Wineguard
TV antenna a Yagi.
When My old Boss moved and asked me if I wanted to buy his TV antenna
I couldn't even use it when I lived out in the country, but here in
the 'BIG City' when I decided to put it up with some Mast sections
I got from Radio Shack, I went to a Electronic Parts Store and got
the Adapter to put on the antenna so I could use RG-6(?) coax instead
of using 300 Ohm Twin Lead that the Adapter had on the antenna when
I bought it from my Boss.
I KNEW when he asked me if I wanted the antenna THAT Wineguard had
all kinds of accessories for their antennas, PLUS I didn't like the
looks of the other tv antenna makers antennas.
Those other antennas might have been LPA's and I didn't know it,
but I KNEW WHAT A YAGI WAS!, and I WANTED ONE OF THOSE Wineguard
antennas if I ever was to buy one for myself.
I'm satisfied and that's all that counts.
The TV Coax lead in is connected to a Radio Shack Amplifier that has
four outputs, so I have my two VCR's and the FM Tuner on a Hi-Fi
connected to it, the fourth output has the Resistor on it.
... Will Rogers never met a lawyer.
