Step 1 - Find, Measure and Mark a piece of wood

1. Find a board similar to a 2x3 or 1x3
2. Mark lines at the marks pictured below

Step 2 - Make 8 wire V's out of wire

1. Cut eight 14" long sections of wire.
2. Find the center, and bend each wire into two 7" long legs, with a 3" gap. (7" legs with a 3" gap is important!)

Step 3 - Attach wires to board

1. Attach the "V" wires the to board using screws and washers, as shown in the image.
2. Zig-Zag the two connection wires down and across the center of the board as shown. It is important that when the wires cross each other, they do not touch.

Step 4 - Attach Reflector

1. Attach the Reflectors to the back using screws. The Reflectors must not touch the "V" wires.

Step 5 - Attach the Balun

1. Attach the Balun to the two center sections of wire. Make sure the two connections do not touch each other.

Step 6 - You're Done! Test your antenna!

1. Attach your antenna to your HDTV using a coax cable, and see how it works!
