RV television antenna patent and description. - VK3LU - 23-05-2022

As keen caravanner I have often had a smile to myself when seeing the weird and wonderful designs of TV antennas on caravans. Some look as though they came from the set of Star Wars. Talking to their owners they are marginal at best, usually requiring a strong signal to deliver reasonable reception, the biggest hurdle to overcome is two polarities and two bands.
Attached is a PDF of a design that might overcome those hurdles.

I think this TV antenna will be much better!

I think a VAST box and a satellite dish solves all the problems.

Igor,
That is a good one! Never seen that before.

Terry,
That's what I finished up with?. The best.
