Actually, the curve plate will only act as a reflector. Reflecting the signals towards the receiver.

However, I don't think it'll work the same magic when it's in transmitting mode though...

It should work too, as it will concentrate the transmitted signals in a single direction. But of course must be correct direction la...

I think he just got lucky with the tent. icon_rolleyes.gif

There was a bunch of physics students in USM that did their final year paper on this topic, seems its actually effective. If I have time (which I doubt) I can go look up their report somewhere.
