  • Patent number: 5528252
    Abstract: A television antenna device comprises a pair of electrically conductive dipole arms, a support attached to the dipole arms for supporting the dipole arms, and an electrical circuit operatively connected to each of the dipole arms and mounted to the support for tuning the dipole arms for an optimal impedance match over a plurality of different frequency ranges. A switch is operatively connected to the electrical circuit and is mounted to the support for enabling adjustment of a circuit configuration including the electrical circuit and the dipole arms to selectively tune the dipole arms for an optimal impedance match over the plurality of different frequency ranges. Each of the dipole arms includes a pair of coaxial series tuned circuits for suppressing current flow over electromagnetic frequencies corresponding to higher VHF channels.
