After replacing 5 brand new antennas that came from Radio Shack I decided I didn?t need that kind of business.
I went to the local store and told the manager. He sent it up to their headquarters and within six weeks they were selling what I called my antenna called UHF only.
I recently went to Best Buy and Walmart and paperwork is on the way to their headquarters. The uhf antenna has a range 20% better than the Yagi, costs half as much, is much smaller and will soon be sold everywhere.
I	may have affected thousands of people. My how this acorn has grown.
Getting the antennas in the stores is not the end without educating the public. Customers entering a store will be sold anything that they see. I decided the only to educate would be to get on national tv.
While trying to figure how to do this it came to me that I have been helping WLOX and they might help. Dave Vincent ended up believing all broadcasters could expand their coverage area and thus their bottom line by 1-3 %.
We are working on making my story a news item and presenting it to the National Broadcasting Association. If we are successful in getting my story on national tv I will be helping millions of people.
