Kind of new to the antenna stuff -- anyone have any good links /
references / etc that explains the differences between types of antennas?

I mean, I know that yagi's generally have a wider beam than parabolics,
etc, but that's all gleaned from product specifications, not actual
information about the antenna.

But, for a specific question: what's the difference between vertical and
horizontal polarity on a parabolic? I'm guessing that it has to do with
which way you are aligning your beam, but does anyone know the definitive
difference?
