Digitek Mini Log VHF TV Antenna | 12-Element Perth Metro

The Digitek Mini Log VHF TV Antenna is a compact 12-element log-periodic antenna designed for reliable digital television reception in strong inner-metropolitan signal areas. Covering VHF Band 3 channels 6–12, it combines 11.5 dBi forward gain with a lightweight folding design that is easy to transport, handle and install.

Why It Is a Strong Choice for Perth Metro

Perth’s main Bickley and Carmel television transmission sites carry the major metropolitan services across VHF Band 3 channels 6, 7, 8, 11 and 12. Because this Digitek antenna is purpose-built for channels 6–12, it is well matched to many Perth metropolitan homes receiving their signal from those main transmitter sites.

• Purpose-built for Perth’s main metropolitan VHF channel range
• 11.5 dBi gain for strong, stable digital reception
• Compact size without the bulk of a large fringe antenna
• Excellent choice for homes with good line-of-sight or strong local coverage
• Suitable for new installations and replacing ageing VHF antennas

Important: Antenna requirements vary by suburb, terrain and the transmitter serving your property. Some Perth locations use UHF retransmission sites, so contact our team with your suburb or postcode if you are unsure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this antenna suitable for Perth?

Yes, it is a very good option for many Perth metropolitan properties receiving the main VHF Band 3 broadcasts from the Bickley or Carmel transmitter sites. Suitability still depends on your suburb, surrounding terrain, roof height and local signal conditions.

Will it receive all Perth free-to-air channels?

It covers VHF channels 6–12, which carry the major free-to-air services from Perth’s main metropolitan VHF transmission sites. Properties served by a UHF retransmission site will require a suitable UHF or combination antenna instead.

Is this a UHF antenna?

No. This model is designed specifically for VHF Band 3. If your local transmitter broadcasts on UHF, contact us before ordering so we can recommend the correct antenna.

Does it include a 4G or 5G filter?

No integrated mobile interference filter is specified for this model. Its strength is its purpose-built VHF Band 3 design, compact size and strong metropolitan reception performance.

Does it include mounting hardware?

Yes. The V-block and U-bolt are fitted to the antenna, and a rubber weather boot is included for the F-type connection.
