Picture of the WIP, but ready to test prototype #dipole #antenna. Despite what the camera perspective suggests, it's approximately 38" overall length without being extended.

The end goal is that it will work for 20m - 6m, mounted on a fiberglass mast.

Stayed up too late kicking off a 3d print for an enclosure that will hold two telescoping dipoles that should work for all frequencies between (maybe) 20m through 2m. Happy this hits so many technician friendly bands!

It is designed to mount to a 1.5” mast, and easily move between horizontal and vertical polarization.

Wish me luck, this is a 12 hour print and will need approximately half a role of filament; here’s hoping I got it right!
