RE: Omni-Directional 15db Outdoor Antenna-boosted distance

Matt,

With experience of this particular 15 dBi omni antenna, you can have pretty
good coverage for near area - even right below antenna. But it would not go
too far, say, 10 to 15KM is maximum, depends on terrain.  Nice thing is that
you may have signal even behind a concrete high raise building, with half of
throughput.

It doesn't look like your response came through?
