Well, I finally got a SWR meter for UHF and put it
on my 2 meter colinear base antenna. The antenna
is a Hustler CG-144 with radial/mast mount kit.
What gets me is if this antenna performs so well on
UHF and the swr's are not too bad, then WHY doesn't
Hustler advertise it as a dual band antenna?


It probably has a high radiation angle on 440 which
is typical of 2m antennas used on 440. An antenna is
a dual-band *by design*, virtually never by accident.
