NTENNA for VHF and UHF television The ANDREW "Skew" Antenna is the only antenna which provides a circular radiation pattern from antenna elements placed around a supporting structure which is larger than a half wave-length on a side! With the ".Skew" Antenna, it is possible to mount a multiplicity of TV antennas on the sides of tall buildings, on the sides of existing towers — even towers which also support a standard antenna on top. The economy offered by a joint operation of this type is obvious. At present, the "Skew" Antenna is custom built for each installation and consequently general performance specifications cannot be delineated. However, ANDREW engineers will be glad to discuss its application to specific situations. •Patents applied for CORPORATION ANDREW four element "Skew" Antenna on the conical end of the mooring mast of the Empire State building, used as auxiliary by WJZ-TV.
