Don't know about the others, this one is very good. Bought it for my aunt who lived far out in the country. She could view stations over 100 miles away. UHF or VHF, I think they're all digital now anyway.

I use this to pick up over-the-air HD TV signals and nothing but that. Perhaps you should check out this site: https://www.antennasdirect.com/tv-antenna-selector.htmlThe product description identifies this item as a long range HDTV antenna and I can tell you that it works VERY well for that purpose. We pick up HD TV signals from boradcast towers as far away as 30-40 miles. Your question regarding FM or VHF would probably be better answered by Antennas Direct themselves.

Hi James we get a lot of wind here to in west virgina we live on top of ridge. Its a big antenna and catches a lot of wind but so far its done great. One thing I suggest is using two inch mast pipe thu. I used inch and quarter and the wind bent it some but stayed up. I'm changing mine to two inch in spring. I live 50 100 miles to stations and I regularly get 30 to 37 channels. FREE You SHOULD INJOY IT

Just looking quickly it seems the 84 is build for long range use over the 94 which is labeled as "medium to long range." My 84 is able to receive a clear hd channels from d.c (55 miles away) and Richmond (60 miles away) I do have a signal booster. My suggestion based on price would be if you can test/return it easily to get the cheaper one and if it doesn't do the trick return it to amazon and get the more expensive antenna.

Dear "dimple". I may not be the right person to ask. I live on block island and am living on the west side of the island. The RI stations on the mainland are east of us and my house is in a valley, so to speak. The only VHF station is ch. 12 and I rarely get it. The station itself is about 50 miles from the island. I wish I could be of more help.

I am only 14 miles away from the antenna farm, so I can't say. I actually installed the antenna indoors and clipped it on a floor lamp. My antenna does pick up VHF, however. At least I believe it does - there is a port for VHF on the antenna. I must have a different version than Robert.

I have the TYT TH-9000D VHF for 222 MHz, but be careful, the VHF model also covers for 2 meters ( 144 MHz ). And there is another model for the UFH that covers 440 mhz. When you order your radio, be specific with VHV for 222 MHz and check the box or dot to select what you want. By the way, I am not happy with this 222 MHz radio, it has a noisy receiver, it cuts off from tx to rx, and the power is not 55 watts. Its power is more around 47-48 watts. I am thinking about buying an Alinco, a radio I should have bought in the first place.

Actually that is my current setup. I have a Moho Leaf antenna and it works great. It also picks up TV guides for all current air tv channels.

Based on the 44 channels I'm picking up from my location in Central Florida, I would say yes. The VHF band runs from 2-6 (low) & 14-69 (high) and the UHF band is 7-13. I'm getting channels 2, 6, 9, 15, 18, 24, 26, 27, 35, 43-55, 65, 68.

I found the fcc website better because the colors mapped to the descriptions green, yellow, red and seem to indicate signal strength vs just distance.. To the best of my knowledge, basic is for green channels, high performance yellow and green and theoretically, extreme, for yellow, green and red. I have the $35 and I can get the green, yellow and some of the red. The remaining red I can get if the weather is clear. Oh, measure how far to a window. Mine did not work well unless in a window and I needed to order and extension piece of coax cable so I could place it high in the window.

This is a mid-range antenna, not a long range. And, I'm in a reception "hole" since broadcast went digital. When broadcast was analog, I could receive Dayton channels, sixty plus miles away. I could not receive even the strongest station with this antenna; but I can receive the Public channel, Bowling Green , which is slightly further away in the opposite direction. I'm not familiar with the antenna to which you referred in your query. If it works well for you, let me know.

The reception is great for me. My office is in the middle of a concrete building with large HVAC equipment on the roof above me and I have no trouble picking up my local public radio station. I just adjust the antenna every now then if things get wonky.

FM 88.1 on the low end, I believe it is 107.9 on the high end. I flip back and forth between 88.1 and 88.3 depending on where I'm driving. One of the two almost always get a good, clear signal. I've been impressed for the price.

The antenna is attached to a stationary base and does not rotate like a propeller. I never tried it outdoors. it is extremely directional. The Lava HD-463 is a much better antenna. It is amplified and rotates on its base. It picks up way more stations.

I don't know about VHF in Georgia but I was surprised that it did get a channel I liked in Maine but did get another that is OK. Images are much clearer than before; just different channels.

Not knowing your area and what direction there coming from..that's a hard one to answer. In my case I have the antenna pointed to are main tower in S.F bay area @ 287 degrees and it's picking up low power 2-7 channels hd signals from 30 miles away in TWO another directions!!. As an installer for Dish and Direct tv That's fantastic and picture is super clear and no "DROP OUTS" from the weak lower channels here. I'm impresseed . Best 40.00 I ever spent on TV....The secret of this antenna over others I've tried is the "rabbit like ears" this one has. There perfect for low channel bands like 2-9 that are mostly low power signals.

Not that great I'm afraid: line of sight is fine, but unless you can get up on a pretty high perch, don't expect much. However, this is true with all handheld VHFs. What I'd love to see is a way to connect the antenna port to a mast-top antenna. Maybe such a thing already exists?
