Chris: The advantage of a full anechoic chamber is that you don’t have to worry about reflected signals messing up your pattern measurements. OTOH, full anechoic performance of a chamber is not easy to achieve, as you get reflections off the darndest little things. I think I might try

Brian: I did some pattern testing in a 30’ x 24’ x 9’ semi-anechoic 461-style enclosure (right, with the big table-top ground plane still in the chamber). I did patterns at various times for 2.45 GHz Wi-Fi, 300 MHz and 225 MHz, usually at a separation distance of 5 meters. Both the EUT

First follow-up to the original post. Let me thank everyone for their interesting responses so far. As always an education. I can tell you it is NOT the 900 MHz wireless phones. We disconnected both of them from AC Mains and telco. We also turned off the outside motion sensing lights.

And if its not local to the house, you may need to climb that tree! Any Motorola Canopy broadnand there? They use 915 MHz guided wave propagation on power lines. OT but... a local provider of more conventional wireless broadband wanted to put a Part 15 915 MHz package on one of our radio

Not that it applies to anything you are trying, but one of our groups needed to characterize some radiating devices.   We set up the OATS mast with the receiving antenna and positioned it vertically over the device, which was aimed vertically up into the blue. Then we loaded the back scatter

The latest fad here for banning or regulating something as a drug, is sugar.   The claim is that sugar is causing the obesity epidemic. The one side uses all sorts of names for sweetener with calories (verses those without, which come under other regulations).
