Did you take a look at AR's "bent element" LPDAs such as ATR80M6G? http://www.ar-amps.com/html/find-it-fast-antennas.asp

What antenna do you use and how much pow er do you required to achieve 10V/m with 80% AM modulation without clipping?? - ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
