Deep Fringe

Hey I live out in the boonies 47°33'28.65"N, 47°33'28.65"N looking for a good deep fringe UHF antenna 95% of my channels are purple 2 edge and 40 miles from the stations in Seattle
Any Tips????

To Fusiontech,

Opps, you told us how far North of the equator you are, now we need to know how far West you are to pull a TVfool report.

I have prescribed this combination to some folks in the Olympia area, and it should work for you, but expect to have some issues with KIRO, the CBS station, which puts little signal over your specific area. The issue that you have is that you have some tall mountains in the way between the main Seattle TV stations and your location.

I recommend the combination of a Winegard YA-1713 VHF high-band yagi for channels 9,11, and 13, and an AntennasDirect XG-91 UHF yagi mounted on the same mast, with the XG-91 on top, separated by 4' It will be necessary to tilt up the front of UHF antenna about 25 degrees so that is can see the refracted signal that comes off the mountain range that blocks your Seattle signals. You'll need a high-input preamplifier like the Winegard HDP-269, and a Pico-Macom UVSJ UHF-VHF antenna joiner to combine the signals of the two antennas. Mount the preamplifier power supply inside the house near the TV set that you plan to watch. If you plan to connect multiple TV sets, you'll need a proper distribution system to get a good signal to all the TV sets. If that's the case, come back to us and tell us how many TV sets you plan to use, and how long the cable runs are from where the coax cable enters the house, and we can help you design a proper distribution system.

Thanks Tigerbang
You da man

Tigerbangs channels 9,11,13 are they digital even though they are VHF

Why do you want a UHF antenna? You have 3-4 VHF stations.

I want as many stations i can get, The ones I usually watch are UHF
