Jack antenna?

The batwing worked fine (I tried it first), but, it actually made the antenna even more "directional" in its reception. The Jack had the same reception qualities (signal strength) as the Sensar with the Bat Wing, but, had much better "off-axis" signal acceptance. That off-axis betterment meant more stations when they weren't all coming from the same point on the compass. If they all came from the same point, there wasn't any change, better or worse. Most of the places we camp, the stations will come from several different towns and I found with the Jack, I could get more of those stations without having to re-aim the antenna. The Jack won't give you any "extra boost", but, it will appear as if it does because of its better off-axis reception.
