Installing and Optimizing a Panel Antenna System 
 

Panel antennas may be used together for both transmitters and receivers to create a highly 
directional system with extended range, good immunity to interference, and reduced 
interference creation.    

  Whenever possible, mount the antennas with direct line of sight. 

  For best results, the antennas should be elevated above the ground.  In outdoor 

installations, adding distance from the ground will usually be beneficial.  In indoor 
installations, height is good, but so is distance from ceiling and walls.   

  Mount the antennas so they are parallel and are facing each other as shown in the figure 

below, with the front surfaces facing each other.
