Elk Antennas 2M/440L5 Dual-Band Antenna
$129.95 – $162.45
Whether you are operating portable or permanent, you will find the convenience of a dual-band Log Periodic antenna to be an incredibly convenient and powerful tool in your ham operations. Having both 2 Meter and 70 cm Bands in a compact, two foot long package, without having to bother with a duplexer is just a real lifesaver to most operating environments. From bouncing signals off of satellites, to working simplex two or three counties aways – you cannot go wrong with the Elk 2M/440L5! All Elk 2M/440L5 models come with a handle for handheld operation, making this antenna perfectly set up for satellite, DFing, and very portable operations. The feed on all Elk Antennas is from the front of the antenna. Where you connect the feedline is where you point the antenna.

Best antenna for the buck! I have been using mine for 2+ years. Handheld or mounted this antenna has perfect reception and it breaks down for quick on the go trips. During a bad winter storm my pole snapped and dropped the antenna 30 feet. Didn’t break or damage whatsoever. 73’s KG5FLO

I picked up the 2M/440L5BB at a recent convention and so glad I did. I have several repeaters near my QTH, however, I am shadowed from them by not only hills but the stucco condo complex I live in. The 2M/440L5BB had no troubles in getting me on the air with my HT! This is a must have antenna for any ham!

Great Antenna!
Worked my first FM Satellite AO-91 with this dual band antenna. I had great reports and receive was great too! I live in the mountain region of Eastern Washington State. My friend has some repeaters that are 51 miles from me and there are lots of mountains and tall hills between us. I was very curious how well I can hit his repeater, so I mounted my Elk Antenna on a 6 foot PVC pipe, I started with 100 watts and hit his repeater! Then I backed it down to 50 Watts,and he still could not tell any difference in my voice to him, and then down to 10 watts and still getting into his repeater!
Oh by the way I live out in the country down in a hole with trees surrounding me.
Oh I forgot to add with my regular antenna I could never hit his repeaters!
