VHF ANTENNAS
The BTY Single Channel Antenna Series
includes professional quality, single channel
antennas designed for a variety of VHF applica-
tions. The BTY-5-LB covers low band VHF
channels 2-6 using 5 antenna elements and the
FM band using 6 antenna elements, while the
BTY-10-HB covers high band VHF channels 7-
13 using 10 antenna elements. The BTY Single
Channel Antennas feature high gain, narrow
bandwidth, and low side lobes for the desired
channel.
These antennas are designed with a two piece
boom allowing the antennas to be shipped via
UPS to reduce freight and handling costs.
Square boom construction and end-sealed alu-
minum elements provide added strength, excel-
lent wind resistance and exceptional weathering
properties. The heavy duty mounting bracket is
positioned at the antenna’s center of gravity for
balanced mounting to the mast. These anten-
nas can be rear mounted using a BTY-C-
MOUNT Cantilever Antenna Mount. This style
mount permits attaching the antenna to either
the horizontal or vertical tower members. The
BTY Series Antennas can accommodate a maxi-
mum mast size of 2.5” O.D. (outside diameter).
These antennas feature a 75
Ω
type “F” connec-
tor to provide feed on coaxial cable down leads.

BTY-10-U
UHF ANTENNA
The BTY Single Channel Antenna Series
includes professional quality, single channel
antennas designed for a variety of VHF and
UHF applications. The BTY-10-U covers UHF
channel 14-69 using 10 antenna elements with
individual channels being arranged into six
channel groups. The BTY Single Channel
Antennas feature high gain, narrow beamwidth,
and low side lobes for the desired channel.
One piece, square boom construction and end-
sealed aluminum elements provide added
strength, excellent wind resistance and excep-
tional weathering properties. The heavy duty
mounting bracket is positioned at the rear of the
antenna for mounting directly to vertical tower
members. This feature maximizes the signal
reception qualities of the antenna by keeping the
elements clear of support structures. The BTY
Series Antennas can accommodate a maximum
mast size of 2.5” O.D. (outside diameter).
These antennas feature a 75
Ω
type “F” con-
nector to provide feed on coaxial cable down
leads.
