-<blockquote>I have also been using a whip antenna with the Cornet which is designed to optimize reception on the Cell Phone bands and 2.4GHz WiFi. It is special because it has 5-6 dB of gain, so it will give a better reading with weaker signals, just like the directional (green) Log-Periodic antenna. **The whip is non-directional, and should be held vertical** (it has a right-angle joint in it to make this easier). A -65dBm tower will read about -60dBm on the meter when using this antenna. It is ideal when signals are weak (eg: inside houses).  Amazon has them: [[http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L62YAIE|Huawei Antenna]]+<blockquote>I have also been using a whip antenna with the Cornet which is designed to optimize reception on the Cell Phone bands and 2.4GHz WiFi.

 The connectors are hidden under a plastic slip-ring. You have to squeeze the plastic ring to begin unscrewing the RP-SMA plug underneath. Most routers have a similar system. The connectors are hidden under a plastic slip-ring. You have to squeeze the plastic ring to begin unscrewing the RP-SMA plug underneath.
