DualBand 2m 6el, 70cm 11el, WideBand High Power Antenna 2m70cm17WAP-2C

Up to 1500W on 2m and 850W on 70cm is possible with the DualBand 2m 70cm WideBand High Power Antenna 2m70cm17WAP-2C, which features lightweight and two separate connectors. With two antennas in a stack, EME is possible on both bands.

The antennas behave as two mono-band antennas.

Features extra high gain for its boom length on both bands, with low SWR.

Consists of 6 elements on 2m and 11 elements on 70cm.

Easy to mount and dismount for portable work.

Antennas-Amplifiers Product Benefits.

A Major advance in antenna design.

• F/B and G/T superiority. All antennas have been calculated using state-of-the-art full 3D EM modeling software, including the influence of the boom, bracket, baluns, and connectors. The performance of antennas designed using these techniques is exceptional, far better than antennas designed using the EZNEC program.
• No tuning antennas. Before dispatch, we assemble and test each antenna’s characteristics. No need to tune any element to get a perfect SWR on the intended frequency range. Everything is pre-tuned.
• Easy to set up. Everything is labeled, just put a number to a number. Everything is included in the box: Antenna, balun, bracket, and guy rope support if needed. Yours is to assemble and have fun!
• Mechanical properties. We believe that our antennas are the world’s strongest antennas and are mechanically constructed much better than any antennas from other manufacturers.
