Abstract
An antenna device includes a housing defining an interior cavity, a UHF antenna element, two VHF antenna elements and two WiFi antenna elements. The antenna elements are mounted to the housing and are selectively adjustable between a vertical, upright position and a folded, horizontal position. The antenna elements are situated on the housing to provide an omni-directional antenna pattern for receiving broadcast signals. Antenna circuitry provided within the interior cavity of the housing receives signals from the antenna elements and generates an output signal that is provided to at least one output connector mounted on the housing or on one or more signal cables extending therefrom and to an external electronic device connected thereto.
