(a) 48 MHz (half-wave dipole antenna has length 1/2 the wavelength, and frequency is speed of light divided by wavelength)
(b) VHF (which is 30 MHz - 300 MHz)
Correct! Your turn :D

Yay! Here goes... Some definition questions:
1. Define an isotropic antenna.
2. Explain the measures of dBi and dBd.
3. Define impedance.

You're pretty cool:) Have a nice day!

3. Define impedance.
1. An isotropic antenna is one that radiates equally in all 3D directions
2. dBi is a measure of power output relative to an ideal isotropic radiator which radiates equally in all directions; dBd is a measure of power output relative to an ideal dipole antenna which has a gain of 2.15 dBi
3. Impedance is a mathematical combination of resistance (opposition to the flow of current) and reactance (opposition to the change in direction of the flow of current)
