Most TV antennas (99.9%) that we have grown accustomed to seeing these past decades are actually a combination of Corner Reflector and Yagi, with the long nose in front leading directly to the first reflector panels that physically comprise the Corner Reflector for capture of UHF signals, and the long outward elements bringing up the rear of the antenna comprising the Yagi component of the antenna for VHF reception. Now you can understand why when examining gain and range data for antennas, the differences in the same antenna are delineated along VHF/UHF categories. Two antennas in one is what you get; with the characteristics of VHF/UHF reception with same basic antenna design being so diverse. This Antenna has useful Omni type Reception Patterns for VHF with more Directivity and Ghost Rejection on UHF. Many Customers have seen success in using combining more than one antenna's signals together (a 2-way splitter used in reverse). For Example; with a UHF for Signals in one Direction and a VHF in another (or two UHF's, or two VHF's, so forth and and so on). This has given many the ability to capture signals in different directions, yet without the need of a Rotor to go back and Forth and in between. Any Model and Make of Antenna(s) can be combined in this manner and will maximize the Gains coming out of all Antennas utilized in this fashion!

There is no substitute of height, clear line-of-site and size does matter... The higher the frequency, the higher the loss... Amplifiers do not give you something that you didn't have already...
The first key to any reception is to get above obstructions that exist between you and your target, as radio frequency reception of any kind (satellite, microwave, Radio and TV) are for the most part "Line-of-Sight" dependant. The fact that some receptions occur without line of sight is due to phenomenon not applicable in this discussion. As you increase your target distance, you increase the territory you must account for in maintaining line-of-sight. What tall building and air traffic exist in this corridor, no one can account for. Aircraft are very good at messing up reception for a number of reasons, even when flying way above the path, again removed for clarity in this discussion. Height, is therefore key in optimizing your ability to capture the best line-of-sight possible to your target.
Medium ;Directional Antennas are good for HD TV Reception in the 0 to 45 Mile Range…
For ;Mid Range Direction ;TV reception, there are typically ;3 major types used; Corner Reflector, Yagi and Bowtie, not in any particular order.
Some of these Antennas are of ;Average Profile and Typically have a Asthetically ;Identifiable appearance which can ;be ;of Concern ;when dealing with Home-Owner and Condo Associations. Their ;Medium size lends some of them well to Attic installations to be completely hid from view. Some Considerations in Attic Installations would be; to keep wiring and other metal obstructions away from the Frontal view of the Antenna as not to impede reception in that Direction, and that any Amplifier that you might be using to enhance reception and/or distribution to other TV sets in the house be colocated with the Antenna as to reduce loss of signal unnecessarily due to distance between the Antenna and Amplifier, as well as to offset any loss in Antenna Gain from Roofing Materials used in Construction.
Indoors or Out, I ;always try to Mount the Antenna in a Position and Fashion that will lend itself to a maximum Angular view of the Horizon so a sweep with the antenna can be performed through and Past the intended reception Direction(s). This will insure that you are centered on Target (finding the "Sweet-Spot" for them all), and that if there are other Broadcasts available to you that were unknown previously, you can amend/supplement your current Antenna installation to add these New Channels to your Stockpile.
