I have an old Channel Master antenna (looks like the Scantenna, http://users.cis.net/kingpop/Scanner/Scantenna.htm.) But to my surprise I could not notice any loss of reception! All the usual stations were there.. Can anyone offer and explantion? How can a dipole antenna still work so well with the entire bottom half gone? If you had a really good signal strength meter you would probably notice that the received signal strength had dropped 3dB. Not normally enough for the human ear to tell. Particularly across a period of time, with most power switches being part of the volume control... Do you have your radios (or antenna mast) grounded? -Donald -- "A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort." -Herm Albright |
