Cost-Effective Antenna Solutions: Comparing Dipole vs Vertical – Which is the Best?

They both work differently. A dipole will generally produce excellent gain perpendicular to the dipole element and a vertical will display an all-around-gain. BUT it all depends on the frequency and the height above ground. Let’s take off the covers and find out.

Here’s the video I discussed on Dipoles vs Verticals: https://youtu.be/ZZWzyypqqjM
