Antenna changes give odd results

[karllitterer]

Have been testing the changes made this week for a while now.
I substituted in-line amps and added a reflective orb at the top of my mast.
The results on statistics were not at all what I was expecting to see.
Here is a pic of some of the hardware I am using:

and here are the results I am seeing:

Hi Katlitter - Excellent 8) 8)

You seem to be receiving ghost reflection signals, I think this may be due to the multi-facet orb being slightly over dilated in the in the temporal domain causing double bubble parity errors in the dongle decoder.

Try running with --waka, that should close up that poor coverage to the east. You may need to specify it twice.

I struggled with antenna designs until I realized the solution was right under my nose! All I had to do was borrow my cat’s tinfoil antenna hat and all my reception issues vanished!

[PeterHR]

Did you twist the antenna stems with the cats ears in them, or did you thread them in later?

Jepolch, just wondering. From the look on the cat’s face, did you wake up this am? Sorry I was offline yesterday

I’ve heard of the CanTenna… but never this CATtenna.

LOL!

Sorry to say, that’s not my cat. I googled “tinfoil hat” and saw that picture and decided it was a good addition to this thread about oddball antennas.

This, however, is really my dog. She’s a pathetic little thing, but we’re stuck with each other. She literally cries tears when I don’t give her a piece of what I’m eating. How sad is that?

As Charlie’s T-shirt in my avatar reads- it’s a ruff life.

I think her mohican needs tidying, and a bit of blackberry dye to touch it up (comes out purple)

[jepolch]

Actually, her Mohawk was tame in that picture. Here’s what it looks like it when it’s out of control. I have considered dyeing it, but never have.

Sorry Jepolch,
The ORB OF POWER reflector that I installed on the top of my mast has allowed my setup to pass you on the statistics page. Up to 168 as of this morning.

Congratulations! I actually have no idea where I stand on that page, but more power to you and have fun!

FYI,
Have dog gone good day!

Its neat to see a happy pet that was given a second chance. Too many are not that fortunate.

Looks like this thread’s going to the dogs. I find that usually improves things.
