Please note that this item does not include any spacer pieces, as spacing would be a matter of preference where some users may opt to have their installed elements maintain some specific distance apart such as 12 inches apart, or 18 inches, etc, while others will choose to run their fan dipole with a true "fan" design where the elements would all be spreading slightly from each other as they travel out toward their ends.


Half-wave Fan Dipole antenna for 80 and 40 meters with a built in 1:1 choke balun. The 80 meter legs measure approximately 66 feet, 10.28 inches (66' 10.28") on each side. The 40 meter legs measure approximately 33 feet, 5.14 inches (33' 5.14") on each side. Made from high quality 16 AWG stranded insulated wire. The center feed point can be held up by rope or however you see fit using the eye-lit loop on top, and you can tie into the ends with something non-conductive like nylon, hemp, etc. Run your feed line with a PL-259 up and connect in to the SO-239 on the bottom. Color of wire insulation varies.

Thanks for looking!

I know there are so many listings and varieties that I have posted now, so if you're not seeing the antenna size or fan combination that you're looking for, just message me and I will give you a quote... or I'll give you the item number to punch in, if it happens to be one I already have posted somewhere out here.

This unit with its internal 1:1 choke is more limited in power input capacity than my other versions which are just a direct connection from the solder joints inside to the element legs.  So because of the extra amount of heat that gets generated by the elements having to make their tight windings through the ferrite donut in a confined space, this unit will handle up to 300 watts continuous, and brief peaks up to 400 watts.  Please note that there are no cancellations after purchase and units are shipped out on the 4th business day after payment is received, because these units are built upon being ordered... so a unit ordered on Monday ships on Friday, a unit ordered on Thursday ships on Wednesday, and a unit ordered on the Monday before Thanksgiving ships on the following Monday.
