Matt,
With experience of this particular 15 dBi omni antenna, you can have pretty
good coverage for near area - even right below antenna. But it would not go
too far, say, 10 to 15KM is maximum, depends on terrain. Nice thing is that
you may have signal even behind a concrete high raise building, with half of
throughput.
