antenna pointing

[kvy44]

Just curious,but when you say aim it at the site you want to listen to for better reception,how would I aim a ST2 atenna,with the widest(side view) part facing the site or the front (facingdown towards mast).its a 800mhz site I want to zero in on.

I may be wrong here, but the ST2 is an omnidirectional antenna...you can't really aim it...that is the purpose of BEAMS and the like. Now if there is interaction with the mast, then there is a bit of directivity. I have found that for 800 mhz systems, a dedicated beam is the best answer!!!!

The ST-2 is omnidirectional for all intent and purpose.
