Also reflects a vertical or horizontal dipole signal. (No gain over a
dipole)

From time to time an antenna manufactures will state that an antenna
has "unity gain". It is my understanding that this term is used for
describing antennas used in mobile applications and is referenced to
the gain of a quarter-wave whip.

Does anyone know of any instances where this term is used otherwise?
