[QUOTE="hdp160, post: 803457, member: 189308"] I wish you hadn't reminded me of this............... I'm tempted to dig out my VHF kit and start playing again. Irish TV here in Wales used to be easily get able. Some of the battery capable portable duel band televisions had really nice sensitive tuners. (a simple project was to isolate the varicap diode in the tuner and sweep the voltage to produce a scanner) I almost cannibalised my 1950's VHF band 3 Yagi aerial a few years back for another project. Glad I didn't! [/QUOTE]
