Hello Robert,

AF (K) for Eaton 94455-1 as a receive antenna:

30, 13.7
40, 13.5
50, 12.4
70, 7.7
100, 10.2
140, 16.0
160, 17.5
200, 12.5
Frequency in MHz, K in dB/m.

I don't have the manual, values are from a report, original source
unknown. It would be nice when somebody could confirm these values.

Hope this helps you a bit.

Best regards,

when you remove abc, the address is OK.


It's been a long time since I've done field strength measurements, but I
recall that each antenna came with a calibration chart for that particular
antenna -- that's really what you're paying for when you buy one. I
wouldn't expect a great deal of difference from one to another, but don't
have the experience to say how much variation you might expect.

Has typical cal charts for 3104C biconical. The
actual antennas are individually calibrated. The
antenna factors are not that far from Wim's example
above.
