Dean,
Since anything around an antenna affects/distorts the radiation pattern to some extent, and since a dipole's radiation pattern is sort of directional (depending on a lot of things), the usual vertical antenna, being 'omnidirectional' would mean that the distortion probably won't mean a 'null' somewhere in the house. (Wonder if I could make that sentence a little bit longer??) That 'donut' radiation pattern is the 'ideal', not what actually happens in most cases. (There's not really a hole in the middle either.) Which would be 'beter' in your situation? Beats me. You might try it ans see, but have the vertical antenna just in case... 'Doc |
