Review on πŸ“‘ Outdoor FM Reception Antenna: Attic & RV Mount for Enhanced Signal by Jorge Tupou

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Misconfigured, Frustrated

I checked the antenna's SWR performance with a calibrated Agilent VNA and found that I had an uneven response across the entire FM band. It looks like the antenna is a bit too long and tuned to a lower frequency (around 82MHz). 88MHz performance was adequate, but performance fell off quickly as frequency increased, making it poor for any frequency above 90MHz. and I know a thing or two about the antenna. Update: By shortening two rods by 8cm each I was able to get the correct SWR for the entire FM band.

Pros
  • Easy assembly in less than 3 minutes; Improved reception.
Cons
  • Very expensive
