Related QuestionsWhere does the antenna go?
SmarterBroadband - FAQThe higher the better. Typically we install the antenna at roof peaks or on TV antenna towers. The elevation, immediate surrounding trees, and distance from our access point will determine how high we have to mount the antenna. The antenna requires a line-of-sight or near line-of-sight to one of our tower sites.
Related QuestionsQUESTION: Is the antenna's transmission a danger?
MotoSAT DataStorm by Internet AnywhereANSWER: No. When properly mounted on the roof of a vehicle at least 6' off the ground. The transmission is 1 Watt. (A cell phone is .8 watts). Similar ground operated units are dangerous and illegal.
Related QuestionsQUESTION: Can the antenna be used as a telephone?
MotoSAT DataStorm by Internet AnywhereANSWER: Just like any Internet Connection, there are applications that allow you to talk over the Internet. There is a delay inherent in satellite technology, (known as latency,) which makes talking on the phone over the Internet a bit strange. However, technically speaking, it can be done.

Legendary Audio Classics: Marantz Classics FAQIt's there for people in environments that are very near a broadcast station's antenna. If you're really close to a transmitter, it can affect reception all across the dial in a negative way. This could be another FM station or even a transmission from a utility service such as police or fire radios that are very near to the receiving antenna for the FM tuner.
Related QuestionsDoes the receiver have an antenna? If so, how long is it?
Spektrum DSM Digital Spectrum Modulation for RC cars. Provid...Yes, the stock antenna is 8.5" long making mounting the antenna easy. What is more, if you prefer a shorter antenna, you can carefully cut the Spektrum receiver antenna to just 3.6" and not lose any performance. This way, you can keep the antenna inside the body.

Related QuestionsWhat does fractalizing an antenna do?
Fractal Antenna: FAQThe benefits depend on the fractal applied, frequency of interest, and so on. In general the fractal parts produces 'fractal loading' and makes the antenna smaller for a given frequency of use. Practical shrinkage of 2-4 times are realizable for acceptable performance. Surprisingly high performance is attained. Multiband behavior is manifest at non-harmonic frequencies, while some bands are broadened.
Related QuestionsWhat does an Antenna Relay do?
Daniels Electronics - Support - Frequently Asked QuestionsAntenna relays are an option for the system monitor. An antenna relay provides a connection between the antenna and either the TX when the radio is transmitting or the RX whenever the radio is not transmitting. It is used in a simplex configuration with 1 antenna, i.e. when you do not need to transmit and receive at the same time.
Related QuestionsHow high does the antenna need to be?
StormTracker - FAQsHeight is not critical. While the antenna will work as low as 5 feet off the ground, raising the antenna higher will improve reception and reduce the likelyhood of local interference. The antenna needs to be high enough to place it above any large metal objects. Mounting the antenna on the second floor or in the attic is usually enough height.

Related QuestionsQuestion: The antenna of my receiver is too long, can I cut it?
Model Airplane FAQNo you can't! If you cut off, say, 10%, then the reception will be a lot worse than 10% decrease. The length of the antenna is tuned to the frequency of your set, so if you modify the length, it won't fit the frequency anymore. The best layout of the antenna is a straight line, even if this means a dangling wire at the tail of your plane... Air pressure falls with altitude, so the air entering your carburetor is less dense at altitude, therefore you'll need a slightly leaner mixture (i.e.
Related QuestionsQuestion: How to replace a broken receiver antenna?
Model Airplane FAQYou can replace the antenna by yourself, if you know how to use a soldering iron. If not, you may get used to it by practicing on an old piece of circuitboard. If there's still a piece of wire sticking out of your receiver, then you don't need to replace this piece. It's better not to, because then you don't have to solder your receiver circuitboard. There might be a risk of overheating if you're unexperienced. Replace the wire with something flexible, with enough strands in it.
Related QuestionsQUESTION: Where can the antenna be mounted?
On-Line Support - Frequently Asked QuestionsANSWER: TCSweb's broadband service relies on Radio Frequency technology which means that an antenna must be mounted where it has visibility to one of our transmitters. Typically, the roof of your business / house or an eave is the best location for the equipment.
Related QuestionsVortis Technologies LTDantenna is a wire or set of wires used to send and receive electromagnetic waves. Two primary features must be considered when selecting antennas: beamwidth, or the "width" of the antenna pattern (wide beamwidth suggests the ability to receive signals from a number of different directions), and gain, or the increase in signal level. Generally beamwidth or gain can be increased only at the expense of the other.Related Questions

Related QuestionsHow much power does the HD antenna radiate?
CPB: Digital Radio Conversion Fund: FY06 Round Two Funding C...of the station's licensed analog radiated power. So if you have an ERP of 100 kW you will need an HD transmitter/antenna system with an ERP of 1 kW. If your antenna has a power gain of 5 then your HD transmitter's output power needs to have only about 200 watts. (200 watts multiplied by 5 equals 1000 watts which is 1 kilowatt.) However, in a high-level combining system, 90% of the digital power is lost to heat, so that means you would need 2 kW at the HD transmitter.
Related QuestionsWhere does the antenna have to be mounted?
Frequently Asked QuestionsThe antenna needs to be mounted so that it has clear line-of-site to our broadcast locations. These broadcast locations are located on hill-tops around the valley, and we have many to choose from. NOTE: Without line of site, our system will not work, and therefore we cannot install. No, we have not found weather of any sort to interfere with our Internet service, this includes, rain, wind, dense fog, snow or any other weather related occurrence.
Related QuestionsQuestion: Is it true that radiation comes from the antenna?
quot;Cell Phone Radiation News Bureau"Answer: Yes, as we explained in the S.A.R. question, there is a band of radiation around your head from the antenna half of which disappears into space. However the skull is hard and there are calcium deposits for some protection. The most vulnerable area for radiation is the soft tissue of the inner ear where most of the reports of tumors have been reported. And as we stated the highest incidence of S.A.R. in the body is in the ear.
