Tram Dual Band Base Antenna Review - an antenna from unlikely sources
This is a review of the Tram 1480 Dual Band base antenna. I was surprised to find this antenna on the Home Depot website while searching for a TV antenna mast. This peaked my curiosity and after a little more searching I found it available from Walmart and Amazon as well.
Unfortunately, after shooting this video I learned that this particular model has been discontinued. There are 2 other Tram models that are still in production. The 1477 is a shorter (44 inch) version and the model 1481 is a higher gain, 17 foot tall version. Links to the current and discontinued models are listed below.
