Please pardon my ignorance, but which part of this antenna is UHF?
The directv guy unhooked it, and I'd like to have it hooked back up.
That way I can record 2 different programs to VHS and DVD at the same time.

Devoid is 100% correct. UHF only. The top two elements and the middle one on the right need to be straightened, and then you'll have yourself a dual-bay stacked UHF antenna.

Thanks for the responses.
Lightning hit it, and I could see from the ground what looked like 2 coax cables coming off of it.
I just ASSumed one was for VHF, one UHF.
Upon getting up there, I could see one cable was hanging there not attached to anything.
Anyway, lightning blew out the box where the antenna cable changes to coax.
I really sound like I know what I'm talking about, huh?!?!
The elements (thanks for the proper term, Tom) aren't bent, as I thought, just folded down from birds landing on them.
I got the lower one straightened out, only because I used my checkbook I happened to have in my pocket, and stood on my tippy toes.
Those top 2 are just too high. A little too thrilling for my taste, if you know what I mean.
I need a yardstick or something to reach them.
