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 rabbit ears
antennas you stick to the wall or window are less sensitive to VHF then they
are to UHF. So it ends up being apples for apples, 80 dBu.
The main thing is do not believe the numbers the FCC states for signal
strength. Those are based on outside antennas 30’ in the air. That is not
reality. They came up with that figure when they had to squeeze a 2nd full
power digital for every full power analog. Reality is your rabbit ears coverage
is the 80 dBu coverage, whether UHF or VHF. So the days of

No, coverage is very good actually. Everyone just says if you can go UHF,
it's much better. It would be another major expense to do it, so not sure it
would be worth it to us, especially with pretty good coverage now. Just
pondering....

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

With the announcement of the FCC finally lifting major change applications for
TV, there is an outside chance we may pursue a different channel.
Just putting some feelers out 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 new this year.
