1. An antenna assembly configured to be operable for receiving high definition television signals, the antenna assembly comprising first and second antenna elements, wherein:
each said first and second antenna element includes first and second portions that are generally symmetric such that the first portion is a mirror image of the second portion;
the first and second antenna elements are in a mirror-image relationship and/or cooperatively define a generally figure eight configuration; and
each said first and second antenna element includes one or more fastener holes, the one or more fastener holes of the first antenna element aligned with the one or more fastener holes of the second antenna element, whereby the first and second antenna elements are coupled by one or more mechanical fasteners inserted through corresponding aligned fastener holes of the first and second antenna elements.
