DP 2
Centre-Fed Folded Dipole for the 160 MHz Band
DESCRIPTION
Single, 0 dBd folded dipole incorporating a balun optimized for wide
bandwidth and accurate matching.
The entire balun unit and feeder terminations are completely sealed in a
polythene moulding ensuring permanent waterproof connections.
The dipole element, the supporting boom and the adjoining metal
castings have been constructed in high quality aluminium alloys to
prevent corrosion. All metal parts are DC-grounded.
These antennas may be arranged in a variety of ways to produce higher
gain, directional lobes or interference cancellation, and suitable
matching harnesses are available.
The antenna is supplied complete with clamp for mounting on 30 - 58
mm diameter mast tubes.
