You need a full half wave to be a real "dipole". one quarter wave on each
side of center. I can't imagine what you have now.

I'm Limited To An Antenna On The Front Of My House. Out My Window I Made A
Simple !/4 wave Verticle Dipole. Would A 1/2 Wave Simply Be Twice The
Length, Using 462/f Mhz, And Would There Be An Advantage With A 1/2 Wave
Over a 1/4 Wave ?
Thanks
