Excellent for high end FM stereo tuner applications.
Performs well in severe multi-path situations like Mountains,
Valley's or Down town city areas.
Antenna also, reduces background noise across the FM band. *Model 2A Deluxe has
tested to receive FM stations up to 100 + miles away. 1 to 40 mile range is typical for FM reception Your
location and reception results will vary.
Directional design helps receiver lock in on weak FM analog and HD radio stations.
10. 2A may be used in pairs for omni-directional TV/HDTV/HD radio or FM
analog, scanner reception. (see last photo on right side of page) You will have "two"
highly directional antennas receiving signals from *four directions (2 FM signals being optimal). Two
antenna are placed in a cross formation pattern separated by a 3 ft spacer. This configuration can
be North, South, East, West or Northeast, Southeast etc. Cardboard or wooden box's are ideal for support of the
second antenna. Model 2's are connected in series with a common 2 set cable coupler.
*One can achieve reception from 4 directions without the use of a rotor. Ideal setup where station towers are located
in opposite directions.
*Coax inputs are considered antenna front.However,antenna will receive
stations from the opposite direction(not as strong as the coax front).You point the coax side to the most desired station
direction for best signal gain.You can receive at least two weak FM/ TV/and HD radio stations from opposite
directions using two directional antennas in series. Some users reported multiple weak stations received using this configuration.Great
for someone who lives near two or more city areas.Ideal set-up for FM,HD radio or TV/HDTV stations transmitting towers in
opposite directions.
11,Coax input is considered antenna Front(point to direction station
transmitting towers for maxium signal gain).
12,Cabinet size: Length 52" by width 9.1/2 ,1" in height.
13,We supply a 6ft coax cable with this antenna. Optional coax cable lengths from 25 to 75 feet of RG6U cable can
be added with little signal loss for remote area installs like attics.

Godar Test and measurement report for distant FM reception.
*Original Model 2a Deluxe lab testing
was conducted in the east side of the city of Phoenix in the state of Arizona.Our findings Are as
follows.
Antenna was placed 6 to 8 ft off ground level indoors.Located inside a one story brick building.
Antenna was pointed in all directions.
2A deluxe received 8 Fm stations 100+ miles away.Typical meter measurements at *one quarter
signal strength. We used signal measuring equipment and a variety of consumer FM tuners from high-end to low end.
(please visit our tuner page on this site) Click on the FM tuner tab.
Each tuner,receiver
has its own unique specification. No two tuner models are the same.Even same model numbered tuners can have slight
differences in performance.Some tuners do better on a signal while others fall short.In some cases, a FM station signal
will be missing all together on a given tuner model.We used a variety of vintage tube and early Japanese/European models.Also
used more recent quartz locking tuning systems found in current home theater receivers.
City of Tucson is one example at
100 miles away from our location.We can receive five Tuscon Arizona stations clear(with a stereo signal) with
a variety of Fm tuners from low to High-end.
*Another
city we received was Prescott at 130 miles away. This station came in weak at best.This station was still
audible, in-spite of the background noise.
Antenna pointed south-eastern direction for the city of Tucson.
Many customers have posted reviews with similar experiences on distant
reception with the model 2A Deluxe.Long distant FM reception is possible depending on your location.
Antenna placement and good tuner
gear will provide the user best results. Your area and elevation can play a role on your reception.Typical Fm reception
for most users averages from 10 to 40 miles. We have found over the years in most cases, the user is trying
to improve one or two local weak FM stations.This is why they purchase a better FM antenna.
*One quarter or 1/25th signal strength out
of a possible 100.
