This antenna is a five-element, Citizens Band beam with a forward gain of 12.3 dB
and a front-to-back
ratio of 31 dB. A Beta Match system matches it to a 50-ohm
feed line and puts the Driven Element at DC ground for noise-free operation and
lightning protection. The beam can be rotated with any heavy-duty TV rotator for
360
coverage.

This beam can be fed with any standard 50-ohm coaxial cable such as RG58/ u
over
or RG8/u. For runs
because of its lower losses. The beam has a SWR of 1.5:1 or less at resonance if it
is mounted in the clear. The SWR will remain below 2.0:1
frequency range.
The beam will fit a 1%" to
recommended for masting material. The antenna should be mounted in the clear
and free from surrounding ObJects. Power lines and any other objects of any mass
or length will deteriorate the performance
either vertically or horizontally.
