Do I recommend this antenna? Heck yeah!. Two of my more experienced ham operator friends have already bought the DBJ-1 after seeing and hearing how well mine works…..especially side by side with antennas costing 10 times as much. It is no secret the Dr. Ed is the genius of the Jpole , but you can feel even better about buying this antenna when you realize that , by purchasing any of the antenna offerings here you are supporting his students. Think about that for a minute…..you get a great antenna that will perform brilliantly for years AND you get to feel good about supporting engineering students. For those new to ham radio or to this concept of antenna, be sure to take advantage of the opportunity to purchase high quality RG8x and all the adaptor/connectors at a great price. Shipping is very reasonable and rocket fast.Read full review

Didn't work for me ,I wanted to use it for gmrs but on 467.700 frenq. swr was high [2.5 ] and would not hit my repeater 20 miles away! Had the antenna about 30 feet in the air with 50 foot of lmr 400 coax on it and a 20 watt radio. Wuold not hit the repeater so I tried some lower frenq. with no luck took it down and replaced it with a comet and hit repeaters 30 and 40 miles away full scale WQTB474

This is the best antenna I've ever owned. Had an arrow J-pole before this and also another 2m ham made antenna while they both worked well they were not as good as this one. After getting my first dual band radio I realized I needed to get a dual band antenna. I decided to try this one based on the reviews and I would also be supporting the college students. I would recommend this antenna to anyone. It's lightweight you could put it up almost anywhere. Can easily carry it in a car or truck to mount for portable operations and no radials to get in the way. The swr's were great no need for tuning. At this price I would say it's a great bargain. I've never owned Comet or Diamond base antennas so I can't compare them but with the on air reports I've been getting I don't see any reason to switch. Thanks Mr Fong!Read full review

Excellent workmanship and quality products. I painted mine a camouflage color and it has worked excellent for two months. The seller was very informative, involved, cooperative, appreciated by this former teacher. Great fund raising cause too. I am very happy with this choice. My signal was excellent on both bands to a repeater several miles away.

I purchased this item based on positive reviews from other HAM radio operators. All I can say they were right on. I am newly licensed and I wanted an antenna that would be able to handle two bands to minimize the need for running multiple cables. I had a few issues with the UHF portion at first, but I contacted Ed via e-mail and he called me directly, on a Sunday even, to help me figure out the issue. I would highly recommend this antenna, especially knowing that the designer/seller stands behind it 100%. I will definitely purchase more of these in the future for other locations. I'd have to say this was by far the best purchase experience I have had on eBay.
