Abstract
An antenna apparatus has a first wire-like antenna element formed into a rectangular planar loop and a second antenna element which comprises two L-shaped plates electrically connected to the loop and mounted to a rectangular planar base member. The loop is hinged to the planar base member along long sides of the respective rectangles so that the angle between the planes of the loop and base member is adjustable. The base member pivots about an axis on a mount which can be secured to a television receiver.
