Works but Nothing Special
5 of 9 found this helpful It arrived bent at an almost 45 degree angle. I had to bend it back into shape. For the high cost of shipping, I would have expected a better method of packaging. After I purchased the antenna, I saw that other builders sell a similar product for $30 and free shipping. It is well built and it works. I bought it to replace a 1/4 wave ground plane that I built for $1 out of scrap copper wire and a connector. The 1/4 wave seems to work a little bit better but the J-pole is more durable. At a total of $50 after shipping, I feel it is a bit overpriced. The connection is done well but I question the way it is connected. Some say that the center conductor should not be connected to the stub. I would have liked to see some weatherproofing of some sort at the connection. The SWR is 1.2 to 1.4 across the 2M ham band. My home brew 1/4 wave is below 1.2 across the entire 2M band. As it seems very durable, I will probably give this to a friend to put at the top of his 100' tree on a PVC mast. In this type of set-up, the durability and simplicity outweigh the mediocre performance.
