I would like for you fellas to try something out for me, because I do not have a
HDTV capable tv. If this does work then you will be able to receive free over the air broadcast HD (mostly in urban areas). This is a low cost or virtually free salution to getting HD. Naturally i'm a shceptic on things from YouTube, but the gentalmen who posted this seems genuine. Check this link out, and try the project and tell me how it goes.
I built one myself, just because I like to build antennas. Mine is alittle different, I used a wood pole instead of a 2x4, and made a base for it to stand it on top of a entertainment center. It can be turned for tuning if its even needed for HD OTA, and I assume the elements need triming for further tuning, but like I said I can't test it, all I have is a SDTv.
