Antenna - Mobile Cb Antennas
If you were around in the mid 70s in the United States you'd have to have been living under a rock not to know about the great citizen band radio craze made popular by the smash hit "Convoy" by C. W. McCall. And if you were into citizen band radio at all you knew that there was a certain prestige to having certain kinds of antennas, especially if you had a CB setup in your home. For the mobile units, the ones that were installed in your motor vehicle, the antennas were rather simple and relati

11. Failing That, User Reviews On The Web Are A Good Source - By: Driskill
Failing that, user reviews on the Web are a good source. Depending on the distance between the transmitter and the receiver the amplification compared to a normal pole antenna can be as high as 40 to 50 dB. However, if you prefer to receive HDTV through an antenna, rather than a satellite or cable s...

12. Antenna -tell Me If The Picture Is Clear - By: Michael Russell
Was it really so long ago; now it seems like another life altogether.  Pieces of our lives seem to disappear at a rapid pace; and what's even more scary is that you look around and you can't even see a trace of the past.  Even people whose economic means won't allow them to participate in ...

13. Maxwell's Equations Predict That A Changing Magnetic Field Induces A Changing Electric Field, So We Now Have Both Magnetic And Electric Fields Around The Circuit, Creating An Electromagnetic Field Called The Reactive Field Or Inductive Field - By: Driskill
All of these parameters are expressed in terms of a transmission antenna, but are identically applicable to a receiving antenna, due to reciprocity. Maxwell's equations predict that a changing magnetic field induces a changing electric field, so we now have both magnetic and electric fields around t...

14. Airlanes Need For Radar, Gps, Radio, Beacons, And Voice Radio - By: Driskill
