In Reply to: DIY UHF Antenna booster with tin foil posted by DavidLD on August 11, 2013 at 11:26:59:
This is my latest UHF reflector...Aluminum pan from Dollar tree (2 for a dollar) with cooking grill from dollar tree (also 2 for a dollar). Works at least as well as aluminum foil. Better still, if this design doesn't cut it as a UHF reflector the parts are great for roasting brats in the oven. The excess grease drops into the pan. I would resist the urge to use the same pan and grill for brats that you are using as a UHF antenna reflector however. But for $2 total you have parts for one of each.
Unfortunately, its been raining here and no reflector pulls in KET for me in the rain. Worse, the KET is almost opposite the NBC (MeTV channel) in location that gets the strongest signal. I need a clear day to do more tests.
