In technical terms, the gain is the ratio of the power required at the input of a loss-free reference antenna to the power supplied to the input of the given antenna to produce, in a given direction, ...

This copper-foil Yagi antenna might not do everything, but it really seems to tick off the boxes for gain and directionality along with ultra-portability. [Ben]’s field test results were most ...

Your distance from the towers is a factor ... Here and below is some info that may help improve reception. Higher gain outside antenna – will have more elements = higher gain- Be sure to ...

The antenna has an f-number of only 0.2, a beam scanning angle of ±55°, a maximum gain of 21.7 dBi, and a gain flatness of ...

and this accounts for their limited range as well (usually just a few hundred feet or less). Chip antennas are also very precise in their frequency tuning, resulting in a narrow bandwidth which also ...
