Re: Better antenna = Stereo?

Fishfood, the small end of any multielement antenna is always the end pointed toward the transmitter. I guess most of us just assumed that if we didn't know anything about antennas, it's sort of like pointing the small end of anything toward the target, but it always works. The big end is the reflector, which performs as its name suggests, so the actual signal collector (driven element) is always in front of the reflector. The others in front of the driven element are a little shorter and serve as directors, i.e., they direct more signal to the driven element.
