Antennas

All Antennas have radiation patterns. While these patterns will vary based on a number of variables, the common items are vertical and horizontal beam widths, and electrical down tilt. TowerCoverage.com has been designed to utilize these antenna patterns. TowerCoverage.com ONLY uses patterns supplied to us by the antenna’s manufacture. TowerCoverage.com also has several generic antenna patterns. Using the exact antenna pattern for your antenna will help improve the accuracy of your coverage maps, but some users find the generic patterns are good enough for their intended usage. The general rule of thumb is to choose the specific antenna you are using. If your specific antenna is not listed, you can have the antenna manufacture contact TowerCoverage at support@towercoverage.com. We will work with the manufacturer to get their antennas’ files added to the site.
