What's In a Name -- Of My Antenna?
"Wayne" wrote in message ... "Sal M. O'Nella" wrote in message ... "rickman" wrote in message ... What I really need in an antenna, is something I can add to the ubiquiti nanostation m900 loco I am using for Internet access. The internal antenna is only 7.5 dBi. I see a Yagi which is 13 dBi but it seems to be out of date. The current model is very fancy and is over $200. The other one is only $33. How about this one for $30 http://www.amazon.com/Yagi-WiFi-Ante...ilpage_o01_s00 ================================================ It looks like the one I bought that would not perform well for me at 2.4 GHz. I measured my directors, which should be close to (but slightly shorter than) a half wavelength. They measure 5 cm tip-to-tip but are NOT insulated from the boom, so add another cm or so, making them effectively 6 cm long or half of a 12 cm wavelength. By the formula 300/wavelength in meters, 300/0.12 = 2500 MHz. It ought to work -- so my problem is evidently somewhere else. Sorry but I'm no help. "Sal" |
