The power of the signal, as perceived by the receiver, will be lower with an omnidirectional antenna. This is because the omnidirectional antenna is transmitting in all directions, while the directional antenna is transmitting in only one direction.Think of the directional antenna as a lens, focusing proportionally more power in a smaller space.
The source is the RF current in the transmitting antenna.
There is no difference between the two.
The source is the RF current in the transmitting antenna.
That truthfully depends on the transmitter's transmitting power, height of the transmitting antenna and the terrain.

Assuming you have the output of an AM modulated voltage hooked up to a properly matched antenna, you're really transmitting electromagnetic waves. An electromagnetic wave, when intercepted by another antenna that is somewhat matched to the frequencies being used, induces a (tiny) voltage on that antenna that can be rectified, amplified, and turned back into sound waves on the receiving end.
With enough power and antenna gain the answer would be line of sight.
RF stands for Radio Frequency, magnetic waves radiate out of the transmitting antenna and are picked up or recovered by the receiving antenna at the receiver.
sound energy is converted to electrical energy from the station through wind energy radio wave is sent and intercepted by an antenna to electrical and sound energy.
It's called polarization and it relates to the orientation of the transmitting antenna. If the transmitting antenna is vertical, the majority of the transmitted energy is vertically polarized so it stands to reason that to pick up the most signal the receiving antenna should be the same way. In a moving auto though more is now understood about the propagation path the signal takes before it actually gets to the moving radio. The signal isn't line of sight but takes a lot of reflective paths before it actually gets to the antenna. The signals are reflected so many times that polarization is altered and can be any direction by the time it gets to the car receiver. Radio stations get around this anomaly by circularly polarizing the signal at the transmitting antenna. Many car antennas are now embedded in the glass windows instead of wire whips formally mounted to the fenders.
