Randy linked to it a while ago. I believe this one is it.

That's the one I made. I gained a few, lost a few, and in general it was a worse performer than the huge UHF/VHF antenna in the attic that's pointing the wrong direction and I can't change that. The deal is that the DIY linked from Peter above is tuned for UHF frequencies. Here in the New Orleans area we have two stations that broadcast their HD signal over VHF, hence the two that I lost. There is another DIY version that is supposed to cover all the bases, but I haven't built it yet... stay tuned!

Hi Randy,

Yes, without getting out my calculator or having another cup of coffee, I think 2300 MHz is 2.3 GHz, so you should be fine.

And yes, the Terk stuff is lousy.

Cheers,
Alan

I always thought that a coffee mug with a built in calculator would be a good invention. Of course, that's old school now. It would have to have a bluetooth media player with an OLED touch interface. The small print on the packaging would say "Coffee ICup Player should not be used with hot beverages as it may damage the electronics."


With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.

Duckman, as Peter mentioned I used that link as well as this one, mine is more like the youtube one, classic Styx song. ;\)
