Indeed John, those were the pre-digital channels. In the early days of dual analogue/ digital operation channels up in the group C/D range were used for the digital programmes. So one might expect a Wideband (ie 21-68) aerial, however Triax, being Danish, certainly sold aerials that only went upto 60 - presumably because in Denmark the UHF TV allocation only went upto 60 (as was true in Germany as well). So could this aerial have been of that era?

I think Triax may have had a range called 'super gain' - which look very similar to their current 'Digi' range.

And no, there are no letter codes on this aerial.
