I am selling a 2m/70 log periodic Elk Antenna (2M/440L5) with a UHF
connector and uncoated aluminum booms for $65. (The price of a
comparable new one is $124.95 plus shipping and taxes.)
This is a great antenna for VHF/UHF DXing on CW, SSB, and digital
modes. The gain is 8.9 dBi (6.8 dBd) on 2m and 9 dBi (7 dBd) on 70 cm.
It's robust enough to handle up to 200W on 2m and 100W on 70cm. This
antenna can also be used for satellite communications without a duplexer
and for fox hunts.
The PVC elements are weather-protected. My antenna is in excellent
condition, but I should note that the original yellow tape near the
feedpoint of two of the elements has faded to gray. (The boom and the
elements are color-coded to show you which elements belong in which
positions.)
