Is there a seperate or different antenna/circuit inside a WAAS radome, just
for the WAAS??

Or will a standard GPS antenna also pick up the WAAS if connected to a WAAS
capable GPS unit.

The WAAS satellites transmit on the same frequencies as the normal GPS
satellites, so an "old" (pre-WAAS) antenna should work the same as a
new one.

The OP indicated the new antenna did make a difference, so I suspect
is has a higher-gain preamp than the old antenna.
