which provides good transmission under normal reception circumstances. In case of
experiencing signal strength problems or/and wave interference (fading), use another
(directed) type of antenna or find a more suitable mounting place for the antenna.

electromagnetic disturbances (e.g. in the vicinity of electric motors, high voltage,
etc.)
