Which way the antenna is pointing.
It depends upon the type of antenna. For example, a Yagi antenna's gain can be increased by adding elements. A parabolic antenna's gain can be increased by increasing the diameter of the antenna. All antennas can have their gain increased by lowering the loss of the feed line. By replacing regular coaxial cable with nitrogen pressurized coax, the overall gain at the receiving end can be increased. Gain can also be increased by inserting an amplifier between the antenna and the receiver. Another method of increasing gain is to reduce the VSWR, or voltage standing wave ratio.
Forward,
It has plenty of direction. The direction of the electric field at any point in it is the direction of the force that would be felt by an infinitesimally small positive charge placed at that point.
i don't think it does because reference point is a point with other points and lines connected to it so it doesn't depend on direction
The on screen signal strength meter will help find the direction your antenna should point. Turn the antenna until you see the highest meter reading.
Yes, but it's not worth your effort. First, you have to connect your device to an external antenna with some gain. An antenna with gain is going to be directional ... good in one direction, poor in the other directions ... so you won't be able to move around with it. Next, you have to know which direction to point the antenna. The best way to determine that in the real world is going to be to hook up your new antenna and go fishing for a signal ... just wave it around slowly until you find the direction where it works best.
An antenna is a completely 'passive' device. It can't radiate more power than youput into it. But if you know what direction you want it to favor, you can design theantenna to take the power away from directions you don't need, and concentrate itin the direction you want.Antenna gain means the strength of the antenna in its best direction, comparedto a theoretical ideal antenna that's exactly equally good in all directions (known asan "isotropic" antenna).
i don't know north
the correct answer is single direction
A dish antenna must face the arriving waves.
A dish antenna must face the arriving waves.
Im not sure exactly, but I know its towards the sky.... ...yep, Im pretty sure that thats it.... ...final answer.
Remove the nut, spacer and bushing that holds down the antenna on the outside car body. Then turn the radio ON. As the antenna extends out, carefully pull out the antenna mast. There will be a plastic portion with teeth at the end. Remember the direction of teeth. When you install the new antenna, the teeth will go in that direction. Insert the new antenna into the antenna housing. Make sure the antenna teeth engages the antenna motor by moving the antenna up & down. Turn the radio OFF and the antenna motor will pull the antenna back in. Reinstall the nut, spacer, bushing and you're done.
The tv antenna should point toward the broadcast station's transmitter tower. South has nothing to do with it.
Which way the antenna is pointing.
Height, direction, antenna type and down lead are major factors in receiving a good TV signal to the TV set.
