Wouldn't it be possible to passively amplify a signal on an omni antenna
by building a 360 degree parabolic reflector. Imagine a parabolic cone dog
collar shield thing with the small opening exposing the omni antenna piece
orthogonal to it then another cone on the other side symetrical to it
(small opening to large). That way a weak signal coming to the omni would
get extra coverage from the reflecting parabolic picking up more of it.

where   | = omni exposed
        )(= signal
        /= one slice of the parabolic (imagine it's curved just right)
