MFJ 1976 Telescopic Whips

When you're looking for a full size 10 and 12-meter mobile antenna with no compromise, consider one of these MFJ-1976 Telescopic Whips. Operable from the FM Broadcast band through 12-meters, these antennas are a great way to get on 6, 10, and 12-meter mobile!

MFJ's premium stainless steel MFJ-1976 telescopic whips are 10 ft. long fully extended and are the perfect choice for building collapsible multi-band dipoles, mobile antennas, or portable or base antennas. They are great for traveling, mini DX-peditions, vacations, and anywhere a long, strong, and conveniently sized antenna might be used. They can also be used to replace your current automatic screwdriver whip for a more highly efficient fixed-mobile operation. MFJ-1976 telescopic whips collapse to only 20 in. for easy packing and travel.

Rigidly collared at the base and stronger than plated brass, they are impervious to rust and corrosion. They stand up to the forces of nature and the rigors of portable and mobile operation where others might fail. The base of each whip features a standard 3/8 x 24 mounting stud for installation on a variety of mobile or fixed antenna mounts, including tripods and mini-dipole mounts.

The beauty of these antennas is that you can operate a full quarter wave on 6 and 10-meters WITHOUT a loading coil! Just be sure that your mobile operation takes wind-loading, trees, power lines, and overpass-height into account. When fully extended, these are normally purely stationary antennas!

We're sure you can think of inventive uses for stainless whips like these. Add a loading coil or autotuner and work even more bands! Contact DX Engineering for one of your own MFJ-1976 Telescopic Whips and get your mobile antenna project underway!
