I would have to pull the info, but if I remember right, it is 5.5db gain in
the omni config.
The normal config is the dogbone pattern. Check their web page and specs.
They did a special version for my company in an omni version and it works
very nice.
I also had them mount a weatherproofed combiner/diplexer at the antenna so i
could feed it with a single feedline of 1 1/4 coax.
The elements are about a big around as your thumb and have a very broad
bandwidth.
I also have a single band (150mhz) version. It has about 20mhz plus
bandwidth.
The cost for the special dual band was in the $3800 range.
It normally is in the $1800 range.

Very interesting. I especially like the harness inside the pipe.
Looking at these, I guess there are different versions of this design.
First I have seen of them. Which version did you get and could it be
configured for omni configuration (I see some of the single band
versions can)? You mentioned it was a dogbone pattern...is this what
you found out or is this specs from the company. Looks like you could
order it with the movable loops. Also what was the cost this company
charged you?
Thanks,

I am not sure they still make the 314. I have tried to get one and
Tessco is
checking on it.
However, a company called Comprod makes one very like it.
However, it is NOT an omni pattern. It is a dogbone pattern.
They did make a special one for me that has an omni, but it was
quite a bit
more.
They are a Canadian Company with offices in New York state. They
will make
just about anything you want for a price. Check them out. Ask for Jim
Gilbert (no relation to me that I know of).
They also make very nice duplexers and combiners.

We are putting together a grant proposal and looking for any place
that is selling a NEW db314. Tessco and Hutton doesn't have any in
stock. Have found one place called Vox Technologies in Texas. They
have them in stock for $1,025.95. Would be nice to get one on
the ham
band...but I guess I will keep dreaming.
Any ideas and / or know anything about Vox Tech?
Thanks and 73,
