The half-wave, center-fed 'dipole' antenna is probably the antenna that's simplest
to design, and easiest to build and operate.
For 100 MHz, it's a single wire, supported at its ends and insulated from the supports,
hung horizontally, opened and connected to a 75-ohm coaxial cable at its center, with
an overall length of 4 feet 11 inches (1.5 meters).
What else can I help you with?
How can you strengthen a signal on a Motorola ht1250 portable radio?
Improve the antenna.
Why is the length of a VHF radio antenna important?
The length of a VHF radio antenna is crucial because it directly affects the antenna's ability to efficiently transmit and receive radio waves. VHF antennas are typically designed to be a specific fraction of the wavelength of the signals they are intended to transmit, with common lengths being one-quarter or one-half of the wavelength. An improperly sized antenna can lead to poor performance, resulting in reduced range and clarity, as well as increased signal loss. Therefore, ensuring the correct length helps optimize communication quality and reliability.
What to do about my poor radio reception when the antenna does come up?
They sell amplifiers to boost the signal ;)
What is a signal reception?
This usually refers to radio sgnals and often concerns the antenna but could also concern the type of radio aparatus.
How does a radio signal go from a disc jockey speaking into a microphone at a radio station to your ear?
In the microphone, there is a diaphragm, which converts the DJ's voice into an electrical signal. This signal is sent along the wire to the antenna, which broadcasts it into the ether. Your home radio receives the signal through its aerial, then converts the signal from an electrical signal to audio - which is detected by your ear.
How radio signal works?
Your radio signal works by using its signal to go to a tower and back to your radio (Via antenna).
What makes metal a good radio aerial?
A good material for an antenna is copper wire. For perfect reception, the antenna should be cut to a length determined by the frequency you want to receive. length = 468/frequency in megahertz.
What is the purpose of antenna on a radio or TV set?
The purpose of an antenna on a radio or tv set is so that it can get signal so we can view tv or listen to the radio
What is longwire?
It's a type of radio signal receiving antenna
What is a Main mission Antenna?
to transmit or receive radio signal
What is the ideal length for an AM radio antenna?
The ideal length for an AM radio antenna is typically around 1/4 of the wavelength of the radio waves being received, which is approximately 100 to 300 meters.
How can you strengthen a signal on a Motorola ht1250 portable radio?
Improve the antenna.
What to do about my poor radio reception when the antenna does come up?

Why are radio stations enhanced when you touch a antenna?
Because you 'earth' it and the signal travels through you.
What basic law of electromagnetism explain how an antenna picks up a radio signal?
RF energy is transmitted through an electromagnetic field. Once the field meets the receiving antenna, voltages are produced by using the antenna as a conductor. RF voltages induced by the antenna are passed on to the receiver then reconverted to transmitted RF information.
With the antenna connected the FM is weak when the antenna is disconnected the signal comes in stronger what could the problem be?
The antenna or the cable between it and the radio probably has a short to the body of the van.
Did Marconi use a kite to invent radio?
Yes, sort of. He used a kite to create an antenna to carry the radio signal.
