The HD-1080 employs needed technology to "bow-tie" antennas. The vertical screen and stacked "bow-tie" elements provide exceptional gain on UHF DTV channels, but struggle to receive VHF DTV channels. (In 2009, you need both UHF and VHF.) The HD-1080 boosts performance on the VHF high band 2-3 times over competing bow-ties allowing you to receive all HDTV channels after February 2009.

Note: The HD-1080 is not a balanced antenna. It has very strong UHF performance, with mediocre VHF performance. Winegard only rates this antenna for use up to 30 miles because of the limits on VHF reception.

Great reception in a small package...

"The first thing you need to know before purchasing an HDTV antenna is whether or not you will need a VHF/UHF antenna or just UHF. Winegard states "VHF-Hi band is needed in 98% of 2009 DTV markets". The [...] puts most of my local transmitters between 37.8 and 41.8 miles. The 1080-HD's stated range is up to 40 miles for channels 7-69...the only channels available once the digital switchover has been completed..." Read Full Review »
