[QUOTE="Karl Winkler, post: 125919, member: 255"] Re: RF antenna; Directional vs Omin-Directional A couple of thoughts on antennas. First, I do agree with Justice's overview. Just to add a couple of details: Omni antennas, if passive, are usually unity gain, while directional antennas have some gain (like 4 dB or so for LPDAs). This can be helpful in overcoming cable or splitter losses. Whenever you can be passive in your antenna system, it is a plus. One additional thing to think about with directional antennas - don't only think about pointing them at the talent, also think about pointing the rear (null) towards unwanted RF sources like TV towers, etc. [/QUOTE]
