Can an antenna be put on a Bose Wave Radio?
Yes. In fact, Bose offers its own "add-on" antennas for about $10 each that plug into the back of their radios. These are simple dipoles -- T-shaped wire, with the arms about 2 feet long and a longer center wire with a connector on the end. Similar antennas are available from other vendors too. Be aware that depending on when you bought the Wave radio, it may have either a standard F connector or a 1/8 inch minijack on the back for antenna connections -- make sure you get the right one. And yes, you can plug a more sophisticated indoor or outdoor antenna into the same jack. With any antenna, its effectiveness depends on where you locate it. An outdoor antenna has to be pointed in the general direction of the radio station(s) you're trying to receive for best performance. Indoor antennas are highly affected by location and position. You'll have to move them around to find the best location. With a little experimentation you should get a much stronger, cleaner signal than the built-in antenna provides.
How do you get rid of static on FM radio in your home?
The radio should be connected to a filtered power strip.These filtered power outlet strips are inexpensive and available in most stores.In more detail....First, how strong are the signals you want to pick up?If you are in a very weak signal area, the only solution is to use a large antenna to capture more signal. Have a look on the Web for antenna/aerial construction.What you've called "static" might just be receiver noise, exactly like the noise you get on an FM set when you tune between stations. If the "static" is *receiver* noise, only a better antenna, or maybe relocating/aiming your radio will help.Now, if you are in a good signal area, what kind of "static"? It might be interference from machinery, it might be from television sets, or from home appliances or computers.AM is the most sensitive to static, so it's the best place to start. You can check whether it's coming from inside your home by turning everything else off, and you'll need to turn off at the wall socket or pull the plugs out, as some equipment still creates interference when you've turned it "off" at its control panel.If the static continues, it's outside your home (it might be from the flat/house next door or it might be a factory or even electric trains). Try getting a portable AM radio and pointing it around. If you get a large *decrease* in the amount of static, you are pointing to (*or* away from) the source. Most AM radios use a ferrite rod antenna which is highly directional at *right angles* to its ferrite core. You may be able to pinpoint the source this way.FM is *very* immune to static, so if you're getting static on an FM set, either (i) the signal is *very* weak, or (ii) the interference is extremely strong.If your FM set has a socket for an external antenna, and you have a TV set, get down to your local HiFi/Radio/Tech store and get a lead to go from the TV antenna to your FM radio. TV antennas usually work well at FM frequencies, so this may give you enough clean signal. Be aware that, if your TV antenna is a "UHF-only" type, this may not work too well. Still worth a try.

What is satellite uplink?
The uplink is the transmitter than sends the data up to the satellite. This can take the form of a dish or a highly directional antenna. You typically see these directional antennas mounted on telescoping poles mounted on the top of TV station news vans.
How can you tell that a satellite is in geostationary?
Watch the satellite, with either a telescope or a very highly directional radio antenna. An observation period of twelve hours will be long enough to answer the question. If the satellite appears to move in the sky by more than a few tenths of a degree during that time, then it is not in geostationary orbit.
True or false highly-directional antennas are generally concave dish-shaped devices?
true
Up to which frequency does the gain of an antenna increase as the frequency increases?
In general, an antenna is "cut" or "built" for one frequency, or for a band of frequencies centering on one particular frequency. This antenna will respond to all frequencies, but will only exhibit "maximum" gain at one frequency. Frequencies higher or lower will not be received quite as well, and the farther from the "tuned" or "center" frequency the signal is, the less gain the antenna will provide on that frequency. As we work with an omnidirectional antenna, we can "tinker" with it a bit in an attempt to get it to work with a broader range of frequencies, but as we broaden the usable spectrum over which it will work, we will see less gain on the "center" frequency. If you're getting the idea that tuning an antenna involves trade-offs, you're getting the right picture. No improvements are possible without "cost" in another part of the operating spectrum. If we move to a directional TV antenna like, say, one of those antennas (not the dish) that still can be seen on some rooftops, we see what is basically a modified log periodic antenna. This antenna will generally be "pointed" or "aimed" in the general direction of the transmission antenna of the station(s) for which reception is desired. Stations with broadcast antennas to the side or the rear of this antenna won't be "seen" as the antenna is highly directional. Having said all that to get you up to speed on some fundamental concepts of the antenna, as we move up the frequency spectrum (starting "low"), the gain of the antenna will increase until we reach the "center" or the "tuned" frequency for that antenna. After that, increasing the frequency will result in signals with increasingly lower gain.
What is the best antenna recommended for 42 inches lcd television?
When it comes to selecting the best antenna for a 42-inch LCD television, there are a few factors to consider. The size of the TV itself doesn't play a significant role in determining the type of antenna you need. Instead, focus on other important factors such as your location, the distance from broadcasting towers, and the signal conditions in your area. For an indoor setup, you can consider a compact and easily installable antenna like a dipole antenna. These are commonly known as rabbit ears and are suitable for urban areas with moderate signal strength. They are budget-friendly options that can provide satisfactory reception for your 42-inch LCD TV. If you live in a suburban or rural area, where broadcasting towers are farther away, you might need an outdoor antenna. In that case, you can consider a multi-directional antenna or a Yagi antenna. Multi-directional antennas are designed to capture signals from multiple directions, while Yagi antennas are highly directional and offer better long-range reception. Both types can be suitable for a 42-inch LCD TV in suburban or rural areas. To determine the specific antenna model or brand that suits your needs, it is recommended to conduct thorough research, read reviews, and consider seeking professional advice. This will help ensure that you select an antenna that matches the signal conditions and requirements of your specific location. Remember, it's important to assess factors like signal strength, range, frequency range, and directionality when choosing an antenna for optimal TV reception.
Where is the antenna located on a 2006 Honda Civic EX?
2006 Honda civic antennaThe antenna is located in the rear windshield. It looks like its part of the rear defrost wires but the top (non-heating section) is actually the antenna.Well, that answers why reception is so marginal when compared to vehicles w/an external, vertical antenna.The AM signals are highly attenuated AND highly directional; AM-station antennas are vertically-polarized...in most cased the entire vertical tower is "hot".The FM stations' antennas are horizontally-polarized, thus better for reception in HONDAs.
Which brand of electronics is best suited for antenna for TV?
I would first suggest getting an HDTV antenna, because it will allow you to get better quality shows than a standard TV antenna. ClearStream antennas have some highly recommended HDTV antennas.
what antenna is the best?
Amplified antennas or antennas with amplifiers are usually the best choices for DTVs. The digital antennas RCA ANT751 and RCA ANT800 receive good reviews . The Channel Master digital antenna CM-3020 is also highly rated as good antenna.
What is dtv green dish?
The DTV Green Dish is a new antenna, partnered with a dish and forms a highly directional, high gain system. It uses the parabolic reflector to focus terrestrial signals in a similar way to satellite dishes. It is claimed to improve reception with distant transmitters and the makers suggest it will be an improvement in all situations with guaranteed reception of all major channels. Buyers should probably have that kind of guarantee in writing before committing to the antenna. After all, it is breathtakingly expensive at $300. The antenna is limited to receiving only channels that are broadcast on the terrestrial channels. Don't expect it to deliver the premium cable and satellite channels.
