Default All Band Coax-fed Dipole ??????????

Looking at the thing, I suspect that it is an OCF dipole. It isn't very
clear, but since they have a "L1" and an "L2", that gives us one clue.
Most center fed dipoles don't need an L1 and L2, because they assume
center fed, inherently 2 equal sides. Notice that they also say "this is
not a kit". That is a disclaimer that they put on their other OCF
antennas. Finally that 135 foot total length is typical of an OCF dipole.


OCF = off center fed?

i suspect the sides are equal in length. L1 and L2 are just designations
used in drawings to denote an element of some length.

Buxcomm sells a Windom too.


Dis ting is quackin' like a big ol' OCF duck!

And as such it should be a serviceable antenna.

Funny that some people are dissing BuxComm on technical matters in this
case............ ;^)


well the coax feed kind of sucks.
