- section; approximately twice the 2:1 SWR bandwidth as the A-99 / I-MAX 2000 (3MHz with SWR<2:1)
- Entire antenna radiates producing a gain 1 to 2 db higher than the best of the competitors 5/8 wavelength antennas
- Antenna tested to 5000 watts without failure
- Mounting system provides easy one piece installation

Works great,got ground plane kit also.I have made contacts all over Europe,USA,Some pacific.Stands up to stoms well.It will let you talk to those weak stations that you think you cant reach.Low swr,low maintenance.Easy to install by yourself.I hear of all those people having problems with their rotors,towers ,beams etc,Put it up and forget about it and DX.

yes got my low pass filter from copper. what a filter large heavy duty i can see that this filter will last me many life times put it in line with my radio and imax 2000. work well no friends came by and complain. and i been talking for four hours. still got 1.4 swr. just like it said on the box. the picture in the copper catalog is not right. this is a great 30 mhz low pass filter for the price. thrilled. sorry the girl at copper had to put up with a deaf old man when i order it. thanks kid.

I upgraded from A99 and was worth the time. i am getting 1-2 s units better on recieve with locals and 1-2 s units on transmit. This antenna is a very good, and it performs well. It bends alot in the wind on windy days, but it always stands up to any storm.
I also upgraded to 213 coax.
This is a good antenna and worth the extra money compared to A99. Easy to set up too.

Ive had this antenna for several years and its great i remeber how much of a improvment i say from my old a99 , the antenna even holds up to hurricanes here in south florida!

As a tech and a long time user of this antenna and several others, I prefer this antenna to all other verticle omni directional antennas. A 5/8 wave antenna is greatly improved over a 1/2 wave. Remember that an antenna is 90 percent of your talking ability. You can use the best radio available with a poor antenna and the guy next door with a Cobra 25 and an Imax 2000 will talk circles around you. This is the best antenna short of a beam antenna.
