Regarding the availability of TV and FM antennas - here is a good site 
that compares the various TV antennas that are available.

http://www.hdtvprimer.com/ANTENNAS/comparing.html   Patterns are shown 
for most antenna on the above site.

Regarding Antennacraft, http://www.antennacraft.net/  it is my 
understanding that they are owned by Radio Shack.  That is probably the 
reason that the credit card receipt is from Radio Shack, if you purchase 
antennas directly from them.

Another major manufacture is Wade Antennas.  
http://www.wade-antenna.com/  They make all kinds of TV, FM and other 
antennas.  They bought the Jerold line, as I recall.

Also, either Wade or Antennacraft makes a discone antenna for wide 
frequency receive.

Wiltronics Supply http://www.wiltronicssupply.com/ in Tyler, Texas is a 
stocking distributor of both Wade and Antennacraft antennas (and towers).

The owners name is Bobby Reems.  Nice guy.  We have bought various 
antennas from him.  Price is right and more importantly, he has them in 
stock.
