Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | In terrestrial television, UHF ("Ultra High Frequency") stations are broadcasters which operate on shorter wavelengths than their VHF ("Very High Frequency") counterparts. These frequencies (nominally between 10cm and one metre) were plentiful but historically less valuable as analogue television stations on UHF channels were prone to require more power to reach even a reduced coverage area. Antenna manufacturers routinely claimed "up to 60 miles UHF, 100 miles VHF over flat terrain" for their largest rooftop antennas. UHF required different antenna designs and different tuners; in North America, many tellies made for the pre-1964 market had no UHF tuners at all. |
