the 6GHZ Frequency range.Receives closed circuit video transmissions.
7, Highly "directional" design for pin point station
clarity,. Eliminates pixel distortions in high definition digital broadcast signals. Prevents TV pictures from
blinking or fading in and out,picture freezing etc. Zooms in on all low power local
and fringe FM stereo stations.
8. Passive non amplified design. No signal amplifier (uses no electricity).
9. Perfect addition for all low
to high end FM stereo tuner/receiver 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/2ft
cables. *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,Cabinet size: Length 52" by width 9.1/2 ,1" in height.
12,We supply a 6ft coax cable with this antenna when sold for FM stereo. 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.
Antenna received 103.1 KCBX FM from Florance 50 miles south of test location.Typical signal strength 60 to 75%
on average with clear strong signal and very low background noise.
2A deluxe received
8 Fm stations 100+ miles away.Typical meter measurements at * less than 25% signal strength. We used signal
measuring equipment and a variety of consumer FM tuners from high-end to low end.Please note: Most if not all FM stations
50 miles plus will receive at very low signal strength and high static and background
(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.Many 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. Signal
strength at 25%-30%
*Another city we received was Prescott at
130 miles away. This station came in weak at best.10-15% signal strength.This station was still audible, in-spite
of the background noise & static.
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 pending 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.There is always one or 2 local desired FM stations that could use a cleaner signal.This
is why they purchase a better FM antenna.
*25% signal strength out of a possible 100.
Model 2A deluxe
compared to the FM1a. You will see a signal imporvement from as low as 5% to 10% on average. This additional gain is significant
for cleaner signal with lower background noise.
