Why is the noise figure so high on these antennas (2.5 dB)? Is that some
pre-filtering, perhaps?

They are designed as timing antennas. That normally puts them in a “lots of RF” environment.
(like a cell tower). They should have some filtering in front of the preamp and a preamp that is
fairly good for IMD. There has always been a lot of debate about this or that one actually having
improved performance in these respects.

That makes sense. Thanks, Bob.
