    Arrow Antenna 6 El 162 MHz Yagi

    The Stainless Steel Solid Element Arrow Antenna for 162 MHz is a game-changer. Up until now, I've done most of my DXing on the weather band using either a 5/8 whip on my Yaesu VX-150 or a 5/8 J-Pole feeding my AirSpy HF+ Discovery. While both worked well, the 6 element Yagi is much better for nulling stations and digging out weaker signals underneath. Plus, this thing is built like a tank. It will survive almost anything extreme weather can dish out. Made in America by Arrow Antennas. Price including shipping was $204.00. A small TV rotor can easily handle it.

    Where did you get a 5/8 wave whip for weather band frequencies?

      NOAA Weather / Railroad Band 160 - 162 Mhz J-Pole Antenna - KB9VBR Antennas (jpole-antenna.com)

      KB9VBR makes a 5/8 J-Pole that performs well. It's made from copper pipe and they do a very professional job. It's cut for 162 MHz.
