Although the vast majority of high definition programming is broadcast on UHF bands, approximately 9% of the total digital TV stations in the United States utilize the VHF band. This presents obvious problems for those people in locations that need to receive signals transmitted in both UHF and VHF.
For the most part, all TV antennas are designed to focus on one frequency or the other so it is not uncommon that people will use two different antennas. However, this is not always necessary.
Most of our UHF Antennas will pick up high VHF stations like channels 7-13 depending on your distance from the transmitters and a few other variables.
Likewise, our VHF Antennas will pick up most UHF stations (channels 14-69) with the major limitation being that they are directional in nature. So, if the transmitter towers you are targeting are not clustered in a certain area, you may experience problems.
For the most part, all of our antennas can function as UHF/VHF antennas, but their success may be limited especially if you are trying to get channels on the very low end of VHF (channels 2-6). If one antenna cannot pick up all of the signals you want, you can consider mounting a VHF antenna on a rotator to point in the direction of the relevant transmitter towers or utilize both a VHF and UHF antennas with a switch box or antenna combiner.
