We are assuming you have a 4 bay dipole array, common for commercial
use. Some of these are basic dipoles fed with a gamma match and it would
be fairly easy to lengthen the elements and retune the gamma match.
Other brands use a closed loop dipole and that would be a challenge to
cut and lengthen. The phasing harness would be a specific length for
160mHz center freq and you may need to make a new one for optimum
results on 2m. If the harness if too long or too short it may tend to
pull the pattern up or down slightly from the horizon.

I ended up with a 4 bay antenna that is resonant from 150 - 170.
How much work is it to put this on 2 meters?
