Multi-Directional
TV Antennas
Multi-directional antennas like
Antennas Direc tDB line of bowtie antennas and
its Lacrosse antenna are ideal for locations where transmitting
towers are not centrally located or when one is trying
to capture signals from multiple cities.
For example, residents in the Washington DC / Baltimore
area or Dallas / Ft. Worth areas will often like to get
channels from both cities so antennas that can capture
signals from any direction are ideal. In fact, for most
areas, multi-directional antennas will work well even if
all of the antennas are consolidated in one area as we
see in cities like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
The problem is that sometimes these antennas will suffer
from multi-path distortion, a problem that is most common
in areas with lots of buildings or obstacles that causes
a "cliff effect".
