Change the polarization to VERT, and use it for 440MHz HAM, or even 462/467MHz GMRS. You want the ultimate HDTV OTA antenna? This would be it!
The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.
