    Description

    VHF / UHF DUAL BAND ANTENNA ( NEW ). Condition is New. This is a New K5BJM 2 Meter and 70cm antenna. Covers all of 2 meter band under 1.4 to 1 SWR. Also covers some of the 70cm band 440.00- 450.00 under 3 to1 SWR . This is a Vertically polarized omnidirectional antenna, rated to handle 300 watts. The antenna is about 62 inches long and has about a 7 foot coax lead to connect to your Radio. It has a coax choke to ensure the Antenna radiates and not the coax. I manufacture these myself. I have sold many of these and have not had anyone unhappy with it. I build these out of HD Copper Clad Steel Stranded Ladder Line. I use Heavy Duty RG8X direct bury UV Resistant coax, ( NOT THE CHEAPER RG 58 ), with the new PL 259 male Crimp/Soldier connection then sealed with shrink tubing, The entire antenna is sealed for permanent exterior use. This antenna will connect directly to your radio. This antenna will outperform a J-Pole  type antenna by 1 to 2 s units on receive and transmit. It offers up to 6Db of gain. The secret of its outstanding performance is its take-off angle of only 4* , this is why it outperforms Many Antennas. Can be used inside home or RV or outside permanently or portable. It fits in a Quart size bag easily and can be even rolled up smaller to fit in a pocket. Hanging in a tree at 20 feet I hit repeaters 50+ miles away, your results may vary depending on your terrain. Twisting of the antenna when hung has no effect on radiation pattern. I tune each of these antennas 1 at a time so you always get the lowest SWR possible, normally 1.0 to 1, at center Frequency on 2 meters !  I take pride in my work. I guarantee your satisfaction with this antenna or I will refund your money, less shipping cost. You will not be disappointed! CONT US SHIPPING ONLY.
