If you live by the 80 dBu contour, no there is no difference.VHF TV takes
less signal strength to light up rabbit ears. But those cheesy rabbitears
antennas you stick to the wall or window are less sensitive to VHF thenthey are
to UHF. So it ends up being apples for apples, 80 dBu.
The main thing is do not believe the numbers the FCC statesfor signal
strength. Those are based on outside antennas 30’ in the air. Thatis not
reality. They came up with that figure when they had to squeeze a 2ndfull power
digital for every full power analog. Reality is your rabbit earscoverage is the
80 dBu coverage, whether UHF or VHF. So the days of

No, coverage is very good actually. Everyone just saysif you can go UHF, it's
much better. It would be another majorexpense to do it, so not sure it would
be worth it to us, especially withpretty good coverage now. Just pondering....

If you are not getting goodcoverage within your 80 dBu contour, my guess is
either the transmitter is notputting out enough power or the 2 bay slots are
spaced a wavelength apart andthere is a null close in. Had the same problem
here. Could not pick me up closein but 25- 100 miles away picked me up just
fine, with a 300 watt transmitter.

With the announcement ofthe FCC finally lifting major change applications for
TV, there is an outsidechance we may pursue a different channel.
Just putting some feelersout if anyone would have a need for a brand new 2.5 KW
Technalogix transmitter, and a new PSI 2 bay antenna both on channel 9? Both
are brand newthis year.
