It looks enough better mechanically than the normal J, that I decided I
have to build one just to see if it works well. And I don't need one, but that probably hasn't stopped too many people in this group. tom K0TAR Richard Heindel wrote: That Arrow antenna is a snap to build and even though centered on 2m band receives really well fm aircraft band to wx band.

I think I've got folded dipole on the brain. But wait - isn't it better to make J-pole. Constructionaly simpler I think, and you can feed with unbalanced coax. Are J-poles wideband antennas? I want any antenna to cover 156-162 MHZ (6Mhz bandwidth) - RECEICE ONLY. Would a J-Pole do here, bandwidth-wise?TIA. A search on google found this marine J-pole. http://www.arrowantennas.com/j-pole.html Looks well put together, and covers what you want at 1.5 to 1 claimed. tom K0TAR |
