Hawking 300N Dish Serves up Better Wi-Fi Reception
When I think of an antenna, the fist thing that pops into my mind is an image of the old rabbit ears that used to sit on top of my TV set back when I was a kid. Perhaps I’m dating myself once again as I reveal such imagery to you but there it is. Now ask any kid today what an antenna looks like and they’re more than likely going to describe something that looks like a dish. And why not since the satellite dish has become the antenna icon of the 21st century.
So it seems only natural that when you design something that’s supposed to receive a modern, computer radio signal of some kind today that you make it look like a dish. And that’s exactly what they’ve done over at Hawking Technology in designing their small antenna to receive a Wi-Fi signal.
