What is the gain of this antenna ?
1538439
It has a dial to tune in channels that an ordinary antenna may not be able to pick up.

I never saw any specifications provided with an indoor TV antenna. I am using this antenna on my first floor of my house and receive a high number of quality viewing VHF and UHF TV stations.

Before antenna: no over the air channelsAfter antenna: several over the air channels#gain

I am sorry, I cannot answer your question. Because this antenna an myself were not meshing together. It has a coaxial for hooking an outside antenna to it. I can tell you that much.

I am sorry, I have no idea. It is probably pure hype. The best explanation I can offer you is that Radio and TV signals require, "line of sight." At a height of ~ 10 feet, the horizon is 50-60 miles (FM radio signals do reflected from the ionosphere, increasing the distance they can be received from the transmitter). This antenna does NOTHING to enhance the signal, so any claims about distance of reception are entirely irrelevant.I found this item absolutely useless. In fact, I returned it. It is no better than a simple, 1 meter piece of copper wire. Save your money. I am sorry, I have no idea. It is probably pure hype.

The antenna has gain in the WiFi band (2.4GHz), but it's a 75 ohm antenna. Most every WiFi devices uses 50 ohm external antennas. Get the 50 Ohm variant of this antenna.Alternatively, find a cheaper 2.4GHz only yagi antenna from another vendor. It will have better gain for WiFi than this "wide band" antenna.

Subjectively, yes. Of course, a flexible antenna can't offer real (positive) gain, but is in this instance it offers less negative gain than the supplied antenna. I think it was money well spent.

Raise the antenna. Maybe purchase an external antenna and plug it into the antenna slot.

no way of knowing that. There are so many variables. I have purchased this and others and tried them. This one has these specs - Amplifies signals from 54-1000 MHz.20 dB selectable FM trap5-42 MHz 2-way bi-pass at +12 dB gainWeather resistant housing to withstand harsh environmental conditions.Check the channels you are hoping to watch to see if they are in this frequency range.12 db gain is nice. I've found sometimes I get new channels on one TV but not another.Your wiring can change things also.If you are not getting great reception, you can also try upgrading your connector on the end of your cable.Sometimes improving that connection will give you a great signal boost.Good luck and God bless!! no way of knowing that.

Don't know, but the connection on the new antenna is 1/4-20 thread. These units did nothing for range enhancement.

Can you provide more detail of what you are wanting to do with this Antenna? I used it for an external Antenna to increase my Wireless reception.

Hi Railson....I do not understand your question, "Higher gain antennas recommendations ?"....could you please clarify. Thank you Chris

It depends. Some external antennas perform better at 1x. Others have increased gain at either 3g or 4g. 1x, 3g and 4g usually operate at different frequency. There are exceptions. Antennas built to excel at 4g frequency usually underperform at 1x and/or 3g. The small rubber antenna has little gain at most frequencies. It also has very little penalty across the board. I ran the wire for my rubber antenna through the firewall. I place the outside rubber antenna on the hood while in use. I tuck it inside the engine compartment on the firewall when not in use.

Wish I could answer this for you, but I have no idea. All I can say is so far this antenna has been an excellent purchase for our home.

according to specs the gain is negative for VHF, so you will be better off with a plain dipole for that frequency range.I have a station on VHF channel 12 very close and this antenna won't pick it up, but it is pretty good with the remote UHF stations.

Aloha, I don't know the equipment you have mentioned in your question ( 460101 DT 4G / booster ) but this yagi ,or directional pointer/ antenna? It was our saving grace when the booster we had purchased just wasn't enough. Get it as high as you can, point it at the nearest Tower and it will increase your range of reception. Hope this is helpful for you. Kaboonshi

I used this antenna 18 miles from the Transmission Site, and had Crisp Clear Signal when it was inside my house, not mounted. I now live 52 miles away from the same transmission site, and i have no signal even with a booster. it is a great antenna.

Yes, but the gain is terrible, -4.0. 700-800 MHz, 1.9 dBi Gain 824-894 MHz, 5.12 dBi Gain 880-960 MHz, 3.1 dBi Gain 1710-1880 MHz, -4.0 dBi Gain 1850-1990 MHz, 6.12 dBi Gain 2110-2170 MHz, 2.3 dBi GainThis is the 4" antenna, 4.5 gain. Although smaller, the 4" antenna is waaay better. 700-800 MHz, 2.0 dBi Gain 824-894 MHz, 2.3 dBi Gain 880-960 MHz, 0.9 dBi Gain 1710-1880 MHz, 4.5 dBi Gain 1850-1990 MHz, 5.1 dBi Gain 2110-2170 MHz, 5.6 dBi Gain

If you are asking if it extends your wi-fi range- No. But you can get higher gain antennas which will.
