After the war, stations broadcast with higher power, but until the
mid 50s there were many areas of the country with poor television
service. Large outdoor antennas were often needed. Click for a
1946 article about TV antennas. Here are some
early antennas from the late 40s, when channel one was still in use:

Early Philco Antenna
This antenna is
cut for channel 3. It appears in a 1946 Philco publication, "The
Servicing of Television Receivers", which contains mostly information on
and pictures from TV sets made before World War Two. This antenna could
have been made before, during, or immediately after the war. It was
donated to the museum by Chuck Azzalina.
