FEATURES:

The 2M-440XPS is ideal for linking repeaters and remote bases utilizing both 2 meters and 440 MHz. Elements
are cross polarized to avoid the severe performance compromises on 440 MHz common to other dual band antennas that
have all elements in the same polarity. The XP also works well on the OSCAR frequencies and is handy wherever dual
band capability and compact size are required. Recently, with PACKET users finding horizontal polarization better on 2
meters, it has become even more useful.
Construction is designed for long term mechanical and electrical integrity. Elements are 3/16" 6061-T6 aluminum
rod, centered through the boom on UV stabilized insulator buttons. All hardware is stainless steel.
