It is a 5-element Yagi design, about 6 feet x 5 feet.
My wife said: 'What an ugly thing! Reminds me of the sixties and seventies before cable television.'
Oh, well. I don't know whether it will give me nirvana, but I can say that I probably have a chance at it. I will climb the roof tomorrow.
(I think that any tuner $100-$300 is probably good. I don't know about Scott tube tuners, but I do have a highly regarded Audiolab tuner. Yeah, it blows all the other tuners I've ever heard out of the water completely. Sounds better than my CD player, even.)
I sure hope this antenna works out as the multipath in the valley that I live has kept me away from FM for fifteen years now.
