High Gain Outdoor UHF Freeview TV Antenna – Directional Yagi Rooftop Aerial
This high gain outdoor UHF TV antenna is designed for reliable reception of Freeview terrestrial digital television broadcasts in New Zealand.
Using a proven directional Yagi aerial design, this antenna captures UHF broadcast signals and delivers stable digital TV reception even in areas where signal strength may be weaker. The design includes multiple director elements, folding reflectors, and a folded dipole driven element, helping maximise forward signal gain while reducing interference from unwanted directions.
The antenna features a folding reflector structure for compact transport and easy setup, plus a separate balun module that connects standard 75-ohm coaxial cable to the antenna’s balanced driven element.
Designed for outdoor rooftop or mast installation, this aerial is ideal for replacing ageing rooftop antennas or installing a new Freeview reception system.
