Abstract
An antenna primarily for receiving electromagnetic signals and for converting the same to electrical signals for input to a television, FM receiver, or the like, is readily adapted for customizing for maximum efficiency in signal reception at close, normal, and fringe areas relative to the broadcasting antenna. The customized antenna may include elongated generally tubular elements of different sizes, bow tie-shape reflector elements, and/or relatively flat elements, all of which are readily mounted on a support structure that may be attached to an interior or exterior wall, a conventional antenna mast, or the like. Moreover, various ones of the longitudinal elements may be electrically coupled by a conductive harness, and the transmission line leads may be adjustably connected to respective ones of the longitudinal elements. Further, the support structure may include a decorative panel behind which the various signal receiving elements are mounted.
