There are no famous store bought dipoles. You can get them on ebay. But, I left
you a post on how to build one. You will not get any better performance from a
store bought dipole than a homemade. And you can easily talk skip with them. You
would get the same peformance from a homemade dipole as you would if you
purchase a A-99 and laid it horizontally.

I get the homemade concept, but am disabled and not interested in
trying to build one! I see through your links that the Workman BS-1
is one store bought option. Anyone have any experience with this one?
I know that Workman is a low-cost option.

Thanks.

AES carries dipole antennas. So do quite a few other Amateur suppliers.

A dipole should work better than an Antron on its side.

I've not used this dipole. However, I saw your post and thought I'd send

There is no experience. They will all work the same, if you cut them to the
lowest SWR. They will work like a homeone. The difference is you don't have to
assemble. You said you are handicapped. Can you hang and trim the antenna? If
so, that will be the hard part. Building it easy.

And regardless of whether or not I'm disabled, I shouldn't have to
defend myself against usenet idiots like you who think that everyone
interested in radio should build their own antennas/radios.

What a joke!! I suppose I should build my own radio too?

With your free time, why don't you find some self-esteem in completing
your COLLEGE education, rather than suggesting everyone enjoy things
the way you do by building them. Not everyone does.

With your free time, why don't you find some self-esteem in completing
your COLLEGE education, rather than suggesting everyone enjoy things
the way you do by building them. Not everyone does.

Sorry, you've just stated that you must be in fact handicapped -on your
brain-.
Take your meds and calm down.
However it is entertaining to see someone "jumping within triangles" as
we like to say in german....

Do you frequently talk skip with them?


There are no famous store bought dipoles. You can get them on ebay. But, I left
you a post on how to build one. You will not get any better performance from a
store bought dipole than a homemade. And you can easily talk skip with them. You
would get the same peformance from a homemade dipole as you would if you
purchase a A-99 and laid it horizontally.

Vinnie S.


I get the homemade concept, but am disabled and not interested in
trying to build one! I see through your links that the Workman BS-1
is one store bought option. Anyone have any experience with this one?
I know that Workman is a low-cost option.

Thanks.

Buther Boy


There is no experience. They will all work the same, if you cut them to the
lowest SWR. They will work like a homeone. The difference is you don't have to
assemble. You said you are handicapped. Can you hang and trim the antenna? If
so, that will be the hard part. Building it easy.

Vinnie S.

I bought one of these and only got to use it for a couple days. It took
them a month just to ship it out, by that time I had built a vertical AND
horzontal Dipole on a switchbox. A storm took the tree out holding the vert
and half the horz. I bought an Imax2K. This spring Lightning turned my
Imax into rice flakes all over the back yard. I put up the Bazooka while
the new Imax came in and it was OK. It got the job done but was MUCH more
narrow banded than the Imax. Hence this quote from the site: Greatly
attenuates harmonics(almost eliminates interference!!!

That's because it throws it back to the radio in reflected power. If you
have TVI problems Buy a filter or quit hacking the radio.

AES carries dipole antennas. So do quite a few other Amateur suppliers.

A dipole should work better than an Antron on its side.
