Introduction
The Rapid Deployment Tuned
Dipole Antenna

has
tuned lengths. For operation, each side of the antenna is unwound to the tuned
length for the frequency required. he label should be level with the end of the
T
winder as shown in the picture below. Lengths for intermediate frequencies
should be estimated and tied off appropriately. The remaining wire remains on the
winder. The throwing cord can then be used to elevate the antenna. The antenna
will operate continuously across the band from 2-30
z. The power rating is 150

Deployment Mast (P/N 2090-02-21), 10m Rapid Deployment Composite Mast (P/N
2090-02-24) and 5m Rapid Deployment Mast (P/N
2090-02-04). This antenna is most suitable for HF
radio manpack and temporary base station
