Comments:

The antenna is hand made by Bernie Wright of Eastern Analog & RF in Cambridge.

The vertical element has a gain of 1:1 and the horizontal element has 3dB of gain but is attenuated at the output of the combiner. The overall gain of the antenna after the combiner is 1.6dB.

Ofcom commissioned this antenna on 6-Mar-2008.

Above: the old antenna, a stainless steel dipole which was not very efficient and installed to close to other 'space junk'.
