Wacky old antennas

[walterbeers]

Here is an odd looking old UHF antenna that I got at the Early Television Convention in 2013. I use it with my big screen 50 inch plasma, and it works better than rabbit ears. Just had to use a matching transformer for the 300 ohm to the 75 ohm coax connector. It just sits on top of my Technics turntable, and brings in good hi-def picture.

That's the old Radion "Bulls-Eye" UHF antenna. Very popular in the early days of UHF.
