Description: A "bow tie" UHF television antenna, mounted in attic. Also called a "grid", "panel", or "reflective array" antenna, it is widely-used for distant reception on UHF channels. This example consists of two dipole elements, each consisting of two V-shaped wires, mounted in front of a screen reflecter. The "bow-tie" dipole has a wider bandwidth than an ordinary half wave dipole, improving coverage of the wide UHF television band.
