I need to sector a tower that currently is an omni. I don't really want to go to 3x 120's but find it hard to find 180's and have heard they don't tend to work great. I have also heard 2x 120's will work, any comments? Mark

That is the general suggestion - two 120s. That one guy that does antenna design said so :) You will get some less coverage then three 120s but at the cost of the extra radio/antenna it isn't cost efficient. On 12/1/09, Mark McElvy mmce...@accubak.com wrote: I need to sector a tower that

I have looked at several 120 patterns and it looks to me like there would be a HUGE gap on the far sides of each antenna? The one pattern I am looking at shows -20db down at 90 degrees on each side. I'm just not sure how well it would actually work? Travis Microserv Josh Luthman wrote:
