Sandpiper Antenna

Hi,

If you can't get an Arrow antenna where you are, try Sandpiper.

I've used the Sandpiper dual bander (2m/70cms) for ISS/RAFT/ANDE ops - mounted pointing up about 30 degrees on a TV rotator with fairly good results.

Also managed QSO's via AO51 with it & Yaesu VX7 handheld from the garden.

Website here:- http://www.sandpiper.entadsl.com/vhfuhf.html

Look for DUAL BAND 2 Mtr / 70 Cms PORTABLE
3 ELEMENTS on 2 Mtr, 6 ELEMENTS on 70 Cm.

You will need a diplexer as well though (I think the Arrow comes with diplexer).

Their web address is: http://www.arrowantennas.com/ but you will likely have to get some help as they don't ship internationally. Some of their business partners do so check their info at http://www.arrowantennas.com/intern.html
