Off-air TV still depends on getting the right antenna onto the roof for the distance and channel mix at each address. Bursma Distributing supplies outdoor HDTV antenna wholesale orders to TV antenna installers and dealers through the Antenna - Tower - Satellite division, with antennas for UHF-only reception, combined high-band VHF and UHF reception, and fringe locations.

Outdoor HDTV antenna wholesale by reception job

High-band VHF and UHF

Where the local channel mix includes high-band VHF stations as well as UHF, these antennas cover both bands:

BUAHBU44: high-band VHF/UHF (channels 7-69) HDTV antenna
CM12018: HDTV antenna, high-VHF and UHF
WINHD7697P: channel 7-69 HD antenna with 75-ohm downlead
WINHD8200U: UPS-shippable HD VHF/UHF antenna
XASSIGGRAB: VHF/UHF HD antenna

UHF only

CM14228HD: HD/digital 8-bay UHF antenna

When every station the customer wants is on UHF, a dedicated UHF antenna keeps the installation simple and avoids carrying elements for a band the site does not use.

Fringe and deep fringe locations

DITDT-XFAMP20-1: fringe antenna with amplifier
DITDUV-DF: deep fringe antenna

These are the models to look at for rural addresses a long way from the transmitters, where signal arrives weak at the roof.

Choosing for the site

Before you pick a model, check which bands the target stations broadcast on and which direction they come from. If they sit in more than one direction, pair a directional antenna with one of the rotors. For the mount, the same division lists roof tripods and towers.
