Back Window

Stupid Question :duh:


Is there a whole drilled in the glass to hold that cell antenna mount?

If so whats a back window cost?

Nope....No hole. Just grab a good hold of it and rip it off. Both sides of course. It just transmits through the glass.

No hole in the glass. Electrically, a glass mounted antenna works like a capacitor: two conductors separated by an insulator (the glass)

Fiber Optics :?:


Not quite an insulator lol

Glass is an excellent electrical insualtor.

So if it was an insulator how would current flow?

That's the idea. It's not suposed to conduct.

Without getting too technical, because RF transmissions are a sine wave, the signal passes through the glass because of the capacitor-like properties of the antenna.

This is a very basic and typical schematic of an antenna found through a Google search. C1 is a capacitor on the antenna input. This is essentially your window.

Alright. I will quit arguing.

:werd: Electronics are fun.

yeah like I remember a lot from that digital electronics course in college :lol:
