I have one area network that broadcasts on Channel 4 (Real = Channel 4 / Virtual Channel 4.1). Will this antenna receive that channel?

This antenna is not designed to pick up low V signals such as channel 4. However, in relatively strong signal areas it might pick it up anyway. You would probably have to try it first to see if it works.

Lot of variables there, the antenna will recieve, fm, sdtv and hdtv signals... so if your broadcast is one of these yes it will pick it up obviously distance, signal strength, and obstructions between antenna & transmitter apply. Then, your tv must be able to receive hdtv for 4.1 digital/hdtv. the only way around that is a converter for older sdtv's so my answer is yes but some rules apply.

This antenna is only for channels 7 through 69. Wineguard sells others that are longer & work well for all channels 2 through 69. Most parts of the country no longer have TV broadcasts in the lower VHF band & this antenna works for them. Those of us who live in the small number of areas that still use the lower VHF band for TV broadcast need a different antenna.

I would think so, we have a similar station and it works. We live at least 20 mile away from some of the station towers and the reception is crystal clear.
1888463
Yes. As long as the channel is in your area, and as long as you have a digital tv tuner you will get the channel 4.1

Would recommend going to antennaweb.org where I not only found out which antenna to purchase, but also to find out what stations can be received--depending on one's ZIP code. FYI: I'm based in Central Florida.

No. Pure and simple. Low numbered stations did not give up their low band VHF signals. That a shame but true for most stations. Once again the FCC dropped the ball and let the industry call the shots. So now we all need two types of antennas to watch TV: a VHF antenna and separate UHF antenna, unless one has room and a structure for a 120" boom antenna. Receiving channels above 13 is easy, receiving 2-13 becomes quite an expensive project.

Yes Section 5 of the users manual says "Can this antenna work with Analogue transmissions? Yes, this antenna can receive analogue television broadcasts in the UHF and VHF bandwidths."

The antenna will still have greatly diminished reception, maybe like a very small indoor antenna. You might still receive some very strong local stations, but nothing else. I know this because I tried it today.

If you are actually talking channels 2 or 6, which are VHF frequencies and not Virtual channels like 2.1 or 6.1, then you need a VHF antenna. This is a UHF, not a VHF antenna. In the future all TV will be in the UHF range which this antenna picks up.

There's NO SUCH THING as a digital antenna. TV is broadcast by radio waves. It makes NO DIFFERENCE to the antenna if the waves are modulated in digital or old style analog, they're still just radio waves. The digital decoding happens inside the TV, not in the antenna. ANY TV antenna will work. Your reception will depend on how good the antenna is, where it's placed, & how far the TV stations are. Beware those flat or mini antennas are designed for only UHF frequency reception & will not pick up VHF stations well unless they're real strong & you're real close to the station. Except for a large attic or rooftop UHF/VHF antenna, the only other antennas designed to do well with the VHF TV frequencies will be your old fashioned rabbit ears antennas. So look up what frequencies the stations in your area are broadcasting on. In many areas, they're all on the UHF bands but not always, & you can't tell by the channel number. In my area, channel 67, which has 4 great sub-channels actually broadcasts on the old VHF channel 7 frequency. Rabbit ears pick it up, but no small or flat antenna would. Meanwhile channel 7, the ABC affiliate in my area, actually broadcasts on the old UHF channel 38 channel frequency. Don't buy into "digital optimized" or "digital ready antennas" it's meaningless sales jargon. On the air TV still just radio waves. You just need a good antenna that will pick up the frequencies in your area. A big attic or rooftop antenna will get a lot more stations, than an indoor one. But if you live near a city where all the big networks are within a few miles, a cheap simple antenna might be good enough. But get rabbit ears if any of them still broadcast on the VHF TV band. Usually extending them no more than 15"-18" is good enough for VHF. If all your stations are near, & on UHF frequencies, just hang one of those little or flat "digital" antennas on a window or wall.

I'm using DirecTV with mine so I'm not sure if you'll require an antenna to receive the local channel feed.

I can't tell you for sure. I am in Anchorage,AK and there is a station that is only 16 miles from me and I have to move the antenna just for that station sometimes. I get the other 2 networks just fine. This was the 4th antenna I tried and it was better than the others.

Yes it will. The channel numbers are virtually assigned. It's not like the old days where channel numbers had some relation to frequency.

Yes, you would need an antenna. By the way, there are no "digital" antennas. Most digital channels are on UHF frequencies. a so called digital antenna is a UHF antenna. I bought an antenna on Amazon and it works well. Look at one of the TV websites and punch in your address, and it will tell you which way to point your antenna and how many channels you will likely be able to receive.

Yes, on one pole I have a Clearstream 4 pointing one direction and a Clearstream 2 pointing another direction, both connected to a signal splitter in reverse (into the out connections), then into a signal booster and into the house. I did the same thing with two VHF antennas on another pole and I receive over 30 digital & HD channels without having to move the antenna rotor every time I change a channel. As we live in a valley between several broadcast antennas this was how I solved the problem and it works fine.

There are many more factors to consider. How far do you live from the station transmitters? What is the topography of your area? Where will you place the antenna inside your residence?The antenna will receive the signals that are available to it. It's up to you to place the antenna where the signals are best. Buy it and try it. If it doesn't work you can return it and try something else.

Yes, On my antenna I can receive digital channels. I not sure how far my antenna is from main antenna but I believe is about the same. It does help to rotate the antenna to get the best signal.

I am not sure if this one will work. The "antenna" is universal. Its the little blue box you have to find that supports what network you are on. One is for PCS ( Sprint ) and the next for 4G networks ( Verizon ) and so on from there. So you have to read which one you need for whatever network you want.

No one else seemed to address the real reason this may work on channels 2-5. Most HD stations are broadcasting at different (ie higher) digital channel and your TV translates it to the correct 'virtual' channel. For example, in Greenville, SC channel 4 (4.1) broadcasts on digital channel 35 but you see it on your TV as 4.1.

I assume it would. But just so you know, I only got one extra channel (Fox) with this antennae compared to an older one.

This is a mid-range antenna, not a long range. And, I'm in a reception "hole" since broadcast went digital. When broadcast was analog, I could receive Dayton channels, sixty plus miles away. I could not receive even the strongest station with this antenna; but I can receive the Public channel, Bowling Green , which is slightly further away in the opposite direction. I'm not familiar with the antenna to which you referred in your query. If it works well for you, let me know.

This unit receive Over the Air channels. You will need to connect a digital antenna to this unit, then connect this unit to your TV.
