Horizontal Dipole
The dipole is the simplest type of real antenna from a theoretical point of view. Most commonly it consists of two conductors of equal length oriented end-to-end with the feed-line connected between them.

Gain
• Dipole has 2.15 dBi gain over an Isotropic Antenna
• Signal from the ends is redistributed to the broadside

Gain
32
Gain is achieved by redistribution of pattern
Where does the gain come from???
Antennas are passive devices and do not generate any “extra” power.

Dipole – Height Factor
Resonant length changes up and down as the height above ground changes.

Dipole LengthUSE THIS FORMULA IN THE FIELD
• The book says 468 / f for λ/2• Soooo 234 / f(MHz) = the λ/4 element Length
• Cut it 2 feet longer and wrap it back on itself.
Element length =
234 / f then add 2’ just in case
• 234 / 7.2 = 32.5 Then add 2 = 34.5
