Hi Chuck,

Any noise that is not directly coupled to the antenna is "propagated
noise". Unless your doorbell is mounted on your tower or installed on
your antenna, the noise it makes is almost certainly propagated.
The only thing that affects propagated noise is antenna pattern, not
antenna "gender".
I hope that clarifies the point I tried to make.
