A YAGI UHF antenna is made to be very directional and receive all the UHF frequencies better than any others. In the US, some digital stations are still on the upper VHS band, channels 7 to 13. More info can be found at www.tvfool.com.

What frequency is used for the broadcast of the astronauts while on the moon?
The frequencies used for these excursions in the sixties were in the UHF band and never made public. It is anyone's guess if this will ever be made public as NASA is under no mandate to make it public, ever. Today, frequencies used would probably also be in the UHF range, but is a very closely guarded secret, especially if you take into consideration the communication between Mars landed vehicles and earth.
Why is heinrich hertz famous?
Heinrich Rudolf Hertz (February 22, 1857 - January 1, 1894) was a German physicist who clarified and expanded the electromagnetic theory of light that had been put forth by Maxwell. He was the first to satisfactorily demonstrate the existence of electromagnetic waves by building an apparatus to produce and detect VHF or UHF radio waves.They named the term hertz, which refers to the frequency radio waves cycle at per second, after him...Also, does everyone on here not know how to use google for simple stuff?
Can a uhf antenna pick up vhf signals as well?
Yes, a UHF antenna can pick up VHF signals, but not well. The size difference makes the uhf antenna "inefficient" for the longer vhf wave length, but some energy can be received by the uhf antenna.
Will a 27mhz cb antenna work on your uhf cb radio?
No, this is not a wise move to make. The antenna metals are not the same. you have to know that antenna metals are different within all Mhz. 2nd- The connectors are different. CB has a wider coax connector and Uhf us smaller. Radio Range/ distance will be less if you use a short wave antenna known as CB. Best to get a High wave antenna- UHF. 27 Mhz is cb radio and the waves are low and long (about 11 meters). 400-460 Mhz is UHF and the waves are high and short (about 67 centimeters). You would need a UHF radio antenna to get the best SWR. Installing a UHF antenna on a car it would require a proper uhf antenna and coax and drilling and using only a UHF Coax cable with the connector. Or buy the Uhf magnet antenna. They are hard to find in your local city and they are pricy because you cant buy them used or at cb shops. you will have to buy one online or go to a Junk yard and find a Police car that has one on top of car. You can Mod Coax cables only if its a UHF cable and antenna. Grounding a car UHF antenna in house can be difficult. Don't run ground to AC ground! you can damage radio. Run Ground wire to the dirt outside and dig a hole and fix with a little water and keep hot coax separated from ground on uhf. Best is to run this to Gutter on roof. Do not MOD CB coaxes with UHF antenna or mix with magnet antenna or CB, VHF, Marine radios. You will waste your time. 800 Mhz police antenna will be your closest match if you decide to do this. It goes by the wave and wave length. Keep Digging
Should you use UHF antenna with digital converter box or VHF?
You need a VHF/UHF antenna (channels 2 to 60 ). Check out: http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/digitaltv.html
How can you connect an antenna to uhf and vhf to get both uhf and vhf on tv at the same time?
First, you need an antenna that is both uhf and vhf comaptible. Usuaully it will have a pair of rabbit ears (vhf) and a center loop or plate (uhf). Make sure the rabbit ears are completely extended then just re-scan your channels on your digital box or your hdtv.
What retailers sell a UHF antenna?
There are many retailers that sell UHF antennas. Examples of retailers that sell UHF antennas include Amazon, Overstock, Best Buy, Staples, Target, and Walmart.
What kind antenna you should use with HDTV converted box?
A VHF/UHF antenna is the correct one for HDTV. If you are using a indoor antenna, the amplified ones are better.
Will a plasma TV work with an antenna?
A plasma TV set is just like any other TV set on the market. It can accept video/audio signals from an VHF/UHF antenna if it has an aerial VHF/UHF antenna input. It can also accept DVB-C or DVDB-S or DVB-T through the same antenna input. You have to refer to the manual that came with your plasma TV set to see what types of signals it can receive through its antenna input.
What are the opening codes for ETV on nagravision 3?
Go toSouth Africa and watch ETV for free with your UHF antenna...
What's a good antenna for a TV?
Getting a VHF antenna will allow the TV to have a strong signals and get the programs that you would need. Also, UHF could be another alternative to VHF.
What is a horn antenna?
A horn antenna is an antenna that consists of a flaring metal waveguide shaped like a horn to direct radio waves in a beam. Horn antennas are used as antennas at UHF and microwave frequencies that are above 300 MHz.
Can a uhf vhf antenna receive FM radio broadcast?
Any antenna can receive anything, but not very well unless it's the correct length for the frequency you're trying to receive. Yes, this antenna will work well so you will not need a special FM only antenna.
What is the best HD antenna to buy ?
For an antenna with a very strong range, a good choice would be the LAVA HD2605 Ultra G3 Motorized Outdoor HDTV UHF/VHF Antenna. It is an outdoor antenna, and should give you good quality HD even at a long range.
