Re: 405-Line VHF Aerials 2013 to the present day.
When looking at these few surviving aerials it is always useful to bear in mind that although a strong signal might be obtained by a 'dry piece of string plugged into the back' it might be badly ghosted. So you have the incongruity of directional external aerials being needed - but with a line of attenuators round the back of the set.
Contrast that situation with one where you are chasing every microvolt 'beyond the fringe' so again a multi-element aerial is called for.
