Just wanted to leave a review for your 2m j-pole. This thing is simply amazing. I have it up about 20 feet in the air and am able to hit repeaters, and receive (with my Yaesu FT2800M) on ten watts, 45 miles away! It is quality built. It showed 1.4 SWR on 147.030. The customer service was top notch, and the shipping was lightning fast and fairly priced. If you want a great 2m antenna you do not have to search any further. You will not be disappointed! I will buy from this seller again! - eBay member: balz0nyer4head
