2. Turnstile antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turnstile_antenna

   Early TV broadcast antennas used "cigar shaped" elements, shown in image of 1939 RCA Empire State Building antenna above. A common shape today is the batwing or superturnstile antenna, used for television broadcasting in the VHF or UHF bands [8] The batwing shape of each element produces an antenna with wide impedance bandwidth.

3. Pan-American television frequencies - Wikipedia

   The Pan-American television frequencies are different for terrestrial and cable television systems. Terrestrial television channels are divided into two bands: the VHF band which comprises channels 2 through 13 and occupies frequencies between 54 and 216 MHz, and the UHF band, which comprises channels 14 through 36 and occupies frequencies between 470 and 608 MHz.

4. Batwing antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batwing_antenna

   A batwing or super turnstile antenna is a broadcasting antenna used at VHF and UHF frequencies, named for its distinctive shape resembling a bat wing or bow tie. Stacked arrays of batwing antennas are used as television broadcasting antennas due to their omnidirectional characteristics. [1] Batwing antennas generate a horizontally polarized signal.

5. Very high frequency - Wikipedia

   VHF radio is also used for marine Radio [6] as per its long-distance reachability comparing UHF frequencies. Example allocation of VHF–UHF frequencies: [7] Radionavigation 60: 84–86 MHz; Fixed Maritime Mobile: 130–135.7 MHz; Fixed Aeronautical radio navigation: 160–190 MHz; Broadcasting Aeronautical Radionavigation: 255–283.5 MHz

6. Television antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_antenna

   It is difficult to design a single antenna to receive such a wide wavelength range, and there is an octave gap from 216 to 470 MHz between the VHF and UHF frequencies. So traditionally, separate antennas (outdoor antennas with separate sets of elements on a single support boom) have been used to receive the VHF and UHF channels. [6]

7. UHF television broadcasting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UHF_television_broadcasting

   TV antenna manufacturers often rated their top-of-the-line "deep-fringe" antenna models with phrases like "100 miles VHF/60 miles UHF" if the antenna included UHF reception at all. (In the practice of electrical engineering, the frequency range in which an antenna is to be used is an important factor in its design.)
