Directionals, whether Yagi, panel, dish, or waveguides are directional for both transmit and receive. (Cans are a waveguide BTW.) Go to a antenna manufacturer's websites and look at various E and H patterns. They show the directionality of a given antenna. 3D patterns are nice too, if you can find them.

The buddy's WAP11 should see an increased signal from smcinsjc1's WUSB11 once it fitted with an external antenna.
