Will this work for VHF Channel 11 or only UHF?

Yes, any channel that is digital. If you go to the company's web site (www.channelmaster.com) you can enter the model in their search option and find all the info you would want to know on this item.

CM-4221HD will pick up UHF and High Band VHF Stations. Assuming your Channel Master 11 is on RF frequency 7 or higher than you'll pick it up! (The display channel is not always the RF channel, please keep this in mind) If you need to pick up RF channels lower than 7, I recommend our CM-3000HD model.

I suppose it could. However, there are no analog TV signals broadcast within the frequency range the antenna is designed for (UHF). A better choice would be an antenna designed for VHF.

This is a UHF (real channels 14 and higher) only design. I have not found any consumer grade UHF only antenna intended for the North American market that matches this antenna's gain performance. Check at TVFool to see what real channels are used in your area and how strong/weak they are expected to be at your location. If there are any VHF channels (real channels 2 through 13)that you need or want, a second antenna designed for the VHF bans(s) would be needed.

It's just the converter. You can use your old antenna if you had one. Just a regular VHF antenna like we've had for the last 60 years works fine.

according to specs the gain is negative for VHF, so you will be better off with a plain dipole for that frequency range.I have a station on VHF channel 12 very close and this antenna won't pick it up, but it is pretty good with the remote UHF stations.

A great question, unfortunately the answer has to be "Maybe...". There are a lot of fancy technical factors that influence what you can receive and the quality level of the signal. 75 miles is a long way for VHF/UHF signals but the proper antenna at a good height may work. The good news is there's a great resource on the internet at http://antennaweb.org The site will help you determine what type of antenna you need in your specific area. Regarding this particular little antenna, my educated guess (I'm an engineer) is that it may pull in some of the distant stations if they are strong enough, and if you can get the antenna as high in the house as possible. These little antennas can actually be placed in an attic and a cable fed to lower level TVs, if you're willing to go through all that. Bottom line (finally...): The thing is so cheap you can try it and return it if it doesn't do the job. Hope this helps you out.

Yes Section 5 of the users manual says "Can this antenna work with Analoguetransmissions?Yes, this antenna can receive analoguetelevision broadcasts in the UHF and VHFbandwidths."

Hello: My unit had a single - I/O - and this was similar to the other units I've owned in terms of setup. I rely on digital channels(DTV) as my understanding is: Currently (prior to June 2009), 91% of broadcasting DTV stations are on UHF. A few cities, such as Chicago and Las Vegas have DTV stations on VHF as well as UHF.

I have the TYT TH-9000D VHF for 222 MHz, but be careful, the VHF model also covers for 2 meters ( 144 MHz ). And there is another model for the UFH that covers 440 mhz. When you order your radio, be specific with VHV for 222 MHz and check the box or dot to select what you want. By the way, I am not happy with this 222 MHz radio, it has a noisy receiver, it cuts off from tx to rx, and the power is not 55 watts. Its power is more around 47-48 watts. I am thinking about buying an Alinco, a radio I should have bought in the first place.

Even formerly analog VHF channels are being broadcast on UHF in digital format now. There should be no immediate need for VHF once the digital transition is complete.

BUT, if you look at the gain figures in the little chart (one of the images), you'll see that this antenna is essentially unity gain, with no directivity, for channels 7 through 13 (174-216 MHz).I think it's pretty safe to assume that this is a UHF antenna! (Channels 14 through 69, or wherever they stop now. Ch. 56?)I notice that some of the reviews mention this same thing - that VHF-Hi reception is poor.So you may want to keep this in mind, if any of your ATSC stations operate on channels 7 - 13.

This antenna will -not- work very well at all for AM/FM... size is the key... Shorter antenna beams (the wires forming the "bow tie") indicate higher frequencies. This is a UHF antenna (around 470 to 800 MHz), whereas FM is between VHF channels 6 and 7 (88 to 110 MHz) and AM is on the order of a megaHertz (0.59 MHz to 1.6 MHz). This antenna's beams are about 1/6th the length you'd want for FM, and about 1/500th the length you'd want for AM. For FM you could try a cheap set of TV rabbit ears (or two 30-inch pieces of bare wire).

It would work for cb channels mostly. You might get marginal reception with it on the higher VHF bands for police and fire. You would be better off get a dedicated vehicle scanner antenna that is designed to receive multiple frequency bands.

This is a UHF antenna. Technically, UHF channels are 14 and up but there are UHF channels under 14. For instance, I get channels 6 and 8. You can go to tvfool.com, plug in your address and see what channels are available in your area, how far away they are and what direction they're in. You want to "point" the antenna towards the direction of the accessible channels.

It's pulling in vhf channels also. That's a pleasant surprise. I am receiving all of the channels I received via the uhf-vhf antenna.

I'm assuming you mean VHF? Doesn't need any additions. I currently receive VHF channels 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, and 13 with no problems. Channels 2, 6, and 8 are coming from a distance of 70 miles, but I am also using a Winegard LNA-200 Boost XT Preamp to help pull them in and also to compensate for my long (70') cable run.

Yes. It is designed for channels 7 through 13 and UHF , but I found it also does a respectable job on channels 2 through 6.
