Scott, my point was not the radiation pattern of your own antenna per se, the access point has a radiation pattern as well. It takes two to tango in this case as the communication is bi-directional,

Gerhard, I am talking about omnidirectional antennas, which I think you call "rod". They do look like a rod. Vertical Beamwidth depends on the dBi gain. If you have a 15dBi gain antenna, it will be

If you have a rod antenna it has horizontally 360 degrees but vertically a very small angle and never more than a few dregrees. 30 degrees are physically not possible. So this kind of antenna should

Thanks everyone for the comments. It seems the logical way to solve this is to isolate the antenna from anything connected to the bonding system. This is what I intend to do as the case is plastic and

Scott, A few things about this. The base of the antenna may be connected to the negative of the power-supply of the WiFi extender. If that is the case, isolate it from the mast. Second putting your

Scott, I hope you guys are safe and healthy. Since I am a simple person who enjoys simple explanations, let me jump in with what I think will help you. The Amel Bonding Checking System on your Amel

A few weeks ago I mentioned that I intended to have by boat sandblasted , I paid for it ,but they did something different,maybe better. I went to see what progress had been made on repairs . The

Hi all, This is really a question about bonding, which I'm very weak on. We have been using a Wirie Pro wifi extender on our A54 for over 2 years and while the Wirie didn't work that great, I

A second vote for Mike Previti. He surveyed two of my previous boats, and when I spoke to him about my upcoming purchase of my Amel 54, he was very knowledgeable about them, and was able to describe

Hi, For the first time, I'm looking at replacing a lot of or ~all of the hoses/valves that deliver fresh or raw water in the engine room. Some of mine have become extremely rusted or are a bit split.

Can anyone recommend a good Marine Surveyor for an Amel in Annapolis MD area? KS

I disassembled pump, clean it and put it back as it was. Starts working, but after 30-40 seconds the fuse goes off. I can reset and it starts again and after 30 seconds the fuse gores off. No water
