[ADXA] Dipolio

[Charles McKenzie]

The 2" wide will handle full power, the 1" wont.....when I was working on the antenna all I could find was 1" so I never considered the power handling aspects...Just need to get some heavier duty material...and the whole idea of the horse fence is supposedly wider bandwidth?

I can’t say anything Charles, I bought two of the horse dipole antennas and put up one for a little while.  Now, they are in the closet, never thought about them until you said something.  I thought they would handle full power though.

Joel never heard that word before 😂
