In Reply to: Signal change when I move the coax wire why ? posted by legarem on December 2, 2006 at 04:40:26:
therefore you will get a little (antenna) gain by having it between the tuner and antenna. This is especially true if the length happens to be a multiple of the wavelength of the station you are trying to recieve. This affect is most often known to and exploited by hardcore DX'ers.Since you are essentially moving a piece of the antenna, ie reorienting it in the EM fields that is the station you are recieving by moving the coax, it doesn't suprise me that you would hear differences in reception especially on weak stations.
