Re: [WISPA] 900Mhz Grid vs Yagi
A bit old here But check out: http://www.odessaoffice.com/wireless/antenna/how_to_pick_the_right_antenna.htm There are radiation pattern examples there. As a general rule I'd have to say that yagi's are quite a bit better than grids. laters, Marlon (509) 982-2181 Equipment sales (408) 907-6910 (Vonage)Consulting services 42846865 (icq)And I run my own wisp! 64.146.146.12 (net meeting) www.odessaoffice.com/wireless www.odessaoffice.com/marlon/cam - Original Message - From: "Tom DeReggi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "WISPA General List" Sent: Monday, November 14, 2005 5:09 PM Subject: [WISPA] 900Mhz Grid vs Yagi PacWireless makes a 900Mhz 18 dbi Parabolic grid antenna.
