Antenna Design Question

I need to build a basic TV antenna, "heavy duty" to withstand the weight of large birds landing on the elements. Are there any sites which give design specifications for TV antennae?

Thank you.

Build it? OK, if that is your thing and you don't put a price on your labor. But you might be better off buying one designed for cable-tv head end use.

I do not know if this will help but a good book on Antenna design is Antennas by Kraus Published by McGraw Hill. I t should be available in the library. The book covers all antenna design in detail.

Try getting a copy of the ARRL antenna handbook. Google it or search for one on eBay.
