* Undisturbed wave field and sufficient field strength proposed. Measuring by changing the angle of incidence, bearing antenna rotating on a revolving table in order to eliminate environmental influences on the bearing result

** Very weak signals can increase considerably the time of response!

*** It is recommended to seal the mast tube, in order to protect the connectors from moisture. For this purpose the additional mast sealing can be used.
