The size of the dish isn't as important as the length of the antenna. The antenna is INSIDE the little can at the focus of the dish. The length of the antenna is tuned to the wavelength of the frequency being received.

What is the average cost per square foot for building a house in Utah?
Depending on the quality of the houses, most houses I see range in the $100 to $175 retail range.
What square foot cartridge pool filter for 25000 gallons of water?
48 square feet will give you more than enough and reduce backwashing frequency.
What is the average cost of office remodeling per sq ft?
So many variables, but assuming at least a couple hundred square feet, the cost can range from $30 for cubicles on up to $700 per square foot or more to build out your Trump Towers offices. Depending on the market, the demolition involved and quality of materials a large number of projects fall into the $80 to $250 per square foot range.
What is the cost of wiring a 1500 square foot home?
The average cost to wire a 1500 square foot home can range anywhere between $ 9,000- $12,000. Price depends mostly on number of light fixtures, recessed lights and choice of finishes. For more info visit www.albrightllc.com
Is a foot actually a foot long?
If your foot is twelve inches long then yes it is. The word foot was used to establish the measurement "a foot" because it is the approximate size of a mans foot.
I have a 1 watt FM transmitter.i want a suitable antenna for upto 3-4 kM range ..which antenna i will choose.and how to make that antnna?
hi, sorry for my english. for your 1 w fm transmitter to cover 3 to 4 km range. 1. choose a free and no noise frequency on your area Try (88.0 to 88.9mhz) exp. 2. make a dipole antenna correct measure for your frequency. 3. install your transmitter in water proof box and put it & the antenna on roof outside and your coaxial cable 1 foot max between the box and the antenna, you need from your room to the transmitter music signal and power cables. 4. ( optinal and not recommended ) if your transmitter take 6vdc to give you 1w connect it to 9vdc to give you 1.3w ( you have to protect your transistor output power & biger heat sink) .
What does LNB stand for on a satellite system?
Answer: A satellite dish is a parabolic antenna designed to receive microwave signals from communications satellites, which transmit data transmissions or broadcasts, such as satellite television. In home based systems, the parabolic shape of a dish reflects these signals to the dish's focal point. Mounted on brackets at the dish's focal point is a device called a feedhorn. The feedhorn is essentially the front-end of a waveguide that gathers the signals at or near the focal point and 'conducts' them to a low-noise blockdown converter or LNB. The LNB converts the signals from electromagnetic or radio waves to electrical signals and shifts the signals from the downlinked C-band (older generation of satellite signals requiring 10 to 12 foot dish diameters) or Ku-band (current generation of satellite signals requiring 10 to 12 inch dish diameters) to the L-band range. Direct broadcast satellite dishes use an LNBF, which integrates the feedhorn with the LNB.
Jack has a 75 foot vertical TV antenna on his roof He wants to connect a guy wire from the top of the antenna to a hook on the roof The hook is located 15 feet from the base of the antenna How many?
76.5 feet.
Does a handheld CB radio need an antenna?
Not necessarily, but the antenna does need to be grounded.
How long should an antenna be to absorb radio waves well and red light?
A vertical antenna, like a piece of wire, connected directly to the radio, works well if it's 1/4 of the wavelength of the signal being received. If it's a horizontal wire hanging between a couple of trees, with a coaxial cable connected to a gap in the middle of the wire, then it works best when its overall end-to-end length is around 1/2 of the wavelength. 1/4 wavelength in feet is around: (246) divided by (frequency of the signal in MHz) 1/2 wavelength in feet is around: (492) divided by (frequency of the signal in MHz) The frequency of red light is around 462,000,000 MHz. So for good efficiency, the half-wave antenna should be about 0.00000107 foot long, or 0.0000128 inch. If you have a radio receiver capable of tuning to the frequency of red, I'll personally come help you trim the half-wave antenna to pick it up. In fact, I'll build you a by-George 100-element Yagi !
Is there any use for a old 8 foot satellite dish?
A frisbee
How much food and what kind should you feed your Maltese pup?
little bits of dog food and about 1/2 a dish (a avg dish is about 1/2 a foot x 1/2 a foot)
What is the best size satellite dish for free to air?
You must be talking about C band dishes. Lots free channels come across the channels and satellites. The are you live in determines the size of the dish. In Idaho we could use a 7 foot dish, in the Midwest they could use a 4 foot dish. On a smaller dish we got a snowy pic on weak channels but strong ones came in OK.
How big of a dish do I need to get free satellite tv?
Free to air satellite is a great way to get programming. You should get at least a 3 foot dish installed.
How do you ground a CB radio antenna?
Grounding is accomplished by connecting a heavy cable from the ground side of the antenna to a ground rod. A ground rod is typically a 4 - 8 foot copper plated steel rod driven into the ground as close as possible to the antenna, making the wire connection as short as possible. All equipment should also be grounded to a rod, not just the antenna.
