Are you in the market for an antenna that can increase the range of your handheld and fit in your pocket or go bag? If so, then I have just the thing for you. Over the last year I’ve built maybe half a dozen Roll-up J-Pole antennas. It’s not my design. It was originally in the September, 1994 issue of QST, then reprinted 12 years later in the newsletter of an Amateur Radio Club in Utah.
On June 8th, I’ll be leading a group build of these antennas. This will take place at the club site that day from 9 AM – Noon.
The cost of the antenna kit, including adapters is $15 cash or $16.05 via PayPal. I prefer paid in advance via PayPal so I can make sure to bring enough kits. But, if you want to give me cash at a club meeting, that’s fine as well.
The J-Pole comes with all the adapters that you’ll need to attach to anything from a SMA (Male or Female, or a BNC. That should be what the Dr ordered for most modern HTs.
