Model No: 2M5WL
FEATURES:
The
2M5WL
is designed with the
SERIOUS
“
Weak Signal
”
enthusiast in mind. It provides excellent gain for min-
imum weight and wind load yet is strong enough to survive 100+ mph winds. The modified folded dipole driven element is
also unique as it
’
s center is a CNC machined block of aluminum fitted with 'O' ringed connectors and access cap. After
factory assembly, the block is filled with a space age silicone gel which further seals and increases dielectric breakdown
and arc

over protection. The
3/16”
rod elements mount through the boom on UV stabilized button insulators. All hardware
is stainless steel except for U
-
bolts. A vertical riser and an overhead Dacron cord guy system is supplied for boom sup-
port. This antenna is widely used in
EME
