Default 2 meter commercial dipole.

Does anyone know of a 2m commerical dipole? Cushcraft used to make a 4
dipole phased array for tower use. I only want one.

I know it is a simple antenna to make, but in my case it is something
I have to pay someone to put up (even if it is on an awning over a balcony)
and it has to survive wind and sandstorms, direct sunlight at 3,000 feet
altitude, and 6 months of the year extremely low humidity.

I want a dipole because a beam would be too obvious and attract attention,
and I want it horizontally polarized.

Any suggestions?

TIA,

Geoff.


Hi, Geoff -

Maybe you could have your installer mount this dipole horizontally.
