I bought a used rooftop tv antenna at a garage sale so there are no

not recall which end points toward the tv station transmitter.

I know the UHF elements are the smaller ones and the VHF are the
larger ones. But which end goes toward the station? Here is a crude

You'd think there would be a diagram on the web, but I sure can not
find one. They should mark it right on the antenna but they dont.


Forget theory. Which direction gets the best reception?
