Bruce, you write at your website that =94Gain, for an ideal 22-inch dish with a pe= rfect parabolic shape and focus, is characterized by a curve starting at 0d= B at 200Hz, The Macauly Library says that: =94The diameter of a parabola determines the= lowest frequency sound that a parabola can amplify. If the wavelength of a= sound wave is greater than the diameter of the parabola, the sound wave wi= ll not be captured or amplified by the parabola.=94 The wavelength of 200 Hz is 1,7 meters. Hence, a parabola capable of (start= ing) amplifying at 200 Hz must have a diameter of 1,7 meters =3D 67 inches. The wavelength of 400Hz (where you claim that your 22" dish has 6 db amplif= ication) - is 0,85 meters =3D 33 inches. Can you explain? Marco |
