[NLRS] Those wind profiler 222 beams that were available back when...

[Marshall Pochay]

Hi guys. I bought 4 of those 10 ele 223 mhz beams  (bottom picture antenna )at one of the wisconsin hamfests for 25 bucks each. Think they were donated to a club. They came with instructions on how to cut them down to 432 mhz. My dad (w9rvg) used one of the antenna modeling programs with the element measurement as they where and built a couple  of 15 ele 223 beams. They are strong antennas. I had one hung outside on a shed for 3 or 4 years now unused and checked the swr on it last time down in em57 and it was still flat at 223 mhz. I believe those were old cushcraft proline brand.
