Fractal antenna orientation
A while back I had a slightly OT discussion regarding the practicalities of fractal antennas for HDTV.
I subsequently made an 8 element version and it works very well in areas of no line of sight/poor reception.
I don't use a reflector on this and it's interesting that the antenna works well on both the horizontal and vertical plane indoors.
See below using on the horizontal.
I was quite surprised that it works in the alignment seen in the picture.
Could it be used as a beam antenna with a suitable reflector at one end ?
Maybe it's just picking up a reflected/multipath signal from the metal roof ?
