Also looking at Telewave's NAT150D6-9 4 bay folded dipoles. Specs at: http://www.telewave.com/pdf/TWDS-7045.pdf
Looks like Telewave coats the elements and advertises "exceptional protection" from all kinds of things including salt spray. One question is the mounting. The mounting mast is "customer-supplied" and think it can be mounted on tower legs. Think each dipole has adjustable arm for spacing. 73, ron, n9ee/r >From: Ron Wright <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Date: 2008/05/04 Sun PM 04:55:40 CDT >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: antenna question - Dip It and >Scotch Kote > >hi all, > >I've been looking at the Telewave ANT150F6-2, 144-151 MHz fiberglass collinear >antenna for Ham repeater at 1175 ft above ground.
