I bought the Swiss Dipole on eBay, it came with no coax connector so I ordered a Dipole Head from Radiowavz for 10 bucks. Yes, I know I could build these things cheaper than buying them however I don’t have that kind of time. So for now I’m buying this stuff, call me an appliance operator, I can handle it.
Like a moron I didn’t pay attention to the connector as I was using my heat gun on the shrink tubing which warped the plastic protecting the head. Thus, this is now my indoor antenna. I am going to purchase a new head and another Swiss Dipole to travel with me in the RV.
I haven’t tested it out yet, I’ll post again when it’s up in the air.
