does this actually work
my friend Don from london suggested i use a bolt rqather than a nail so read the rest.
yes it does i just built one myself but i used a bolt with two sets of nuts one inside the can and the other outside with the wire connector outside. what a shock it works better that i would have ever dreamed.
What a load of crap. You have attempted to copy a wifi 'cantenna' without actually understanding any of the design principals. A piece of damp string will work if you have a strong enough signal, the fact that you get a picture from a tin can with a nail hammered through it does not mean you have a functional design.
its good for signals that are already stong
I tried it and got 35 channels, if I hadnt of made it myself I wouldnt have believed it.
this actually does work especially if you are in a pinch and don't have time to go out and get a real antenna. I was able to get 30 channels in with it which is good since without it I wouldn't have anything.
how it transforms the signal...what s the technique behind?pls explain..
