These Bushcomm FD-600 Wideband Folded Dipoles are compact, two-wire folded dipole alternatives to our best-selling model; the BBA-100 three-wire broad-band antenna. The FD-600 Folded Dipole covers the frequency range of 2-30 MHz, and has a rated power input of 600 watts PEP. Best of all, as with the majority of our antennas, no tuner is required.

The Folded Dipole is a multi-wire antenna that is relatively lightweight. By having only two stainless steel wires compared to the BBA-100's three wires, it also has less wind loading! These antennas sport an SWR of better than 2.5:1 (typically 1.5-1.6:1) from 2 to 30 MH
