Tsteelhead's Whippy Whipps
2 meter ham radio antennas antenna replacement rubber duck scanner radios
___DEAN'S WHIPPY WHIP INFO PAGE!
These pics are of the 2 meter Whippy Whipp antennas. Colors of plasic covering
is subject to change, but are usually all black.
This antenna is a full quarter wave whip (around 19 inches) for 2 meter handi-talkies. Hand made,
very flexible coated steel product. Protected with a plastic covering, they are only about 1/8 inch thick-
very springy. They are cut for 146.00 mhz. and work better than any "Rubber Ducky" that I have seen.
(I can cut them for 70cm, general scanning, police/fire transmitting etc...) I have sold over a hundred of
these, and every buyer was impressed. They give out 0 db on trans and recieve (as opposed to -5db for
a 6 inch rubber duck) and allow your HT to put out all your output power as usable RF energy. This
antenna will allow you to turn down your output power and get the same results as your high power
setting! Each antenna is hand tuned and tested prior to shipment by myself, and a satisfaction guarantee
is placed on the product for the first week of ownership. If you don't like it, send it back for a refund of
selling amount (minus shipping). I can tune these for other freq's as well. Many firemen and forestry
personel have been using my whipps for years! They hold up well, (after a lot of hard use, they can get
a little lopsided) and have a rounded tip for eye protection. This product is a much better deal than
spending 30 dollars for a commercially manufactured unit, and you are helping a college kid play radio
(as well as eat)!!! If you have any questions, please email me! Tsteelhead@aol.com I am online several
times a day and enjoy hearing from you. Pictures are available if the ones below don't show up . Email me
and I can send the pics to you. These antennas also work well on handheld scanners or anything with
a BNC connector. I will ship one whip for $3.00 dollars US funds to US addresses only. 73! KF6AAI
