How to choose an omnidirectional antenna for SDR
An omnidirectional antenna receives from every direction without aiming. How to pick the band, connector and weight for SDR monitoring — across three models.

When 360° coverage beats gain: how to read an omnidirectional pattern, where 8.8 dBi comes from, and what actually decides link quality.

A comparison of narrowband antennas and Log Periodic Dipole Antennas (LPDAs): choosing the right antenna based on whether you need peak efficiency at a narrow frequency or stable performance across a wide spectrum.
