WXXI-TV Rochester, New York – Top Mounted UHF TRASAR® Television Antenna

The antenna pictured is the new ERI TRASAR® elliptically polarized UHF television installed for WXXI-TV’s new repack RF Channel 22 antenna. The move from RF Channel 16 to RF Channel 200 was part of the FCC mandated repack to free up RF spectrum for wireless communications. The antenna is mounted at the top of the 276-foot WXXI owned tower on Pinnacle Hill southeast of Rochester. The top of the TRASAR antenna is 345-feet above ground level. This antenna replaced the RF Channel 16 elliptically polarized ERI TRASAR antenna installed in 2014. Photo courtesy of Mike Fitzpatrick/NECRAT.us.
