Intellitron TA-1317 17ft Stainless Steel Telescopic Antenna 3/8-24

Intellitron’s engineers surveyed existing 17-foot collapsible whips and did exactly what you’d expect -- made them better! Better by increasing top-two sections diameters nearly three times for added strength, less flexing, and less drooping. Better by swage-reinforcing each slip joint for added strength, Drooping and better electrical contact. The TA-1317 is perfect for building a wide range of portable multi-band antennas, and strong enough for permanent instruction.

Headed out for a POTA weekend or a jaunt to the beach? Slip a TA-1317 into your backpack for an efficient vertical. Or, better yet, bring two plus an AA-1602 dipole bracket and rack up contacts using a full-size multi-band rotatable dipole!

In addition to the TA-1317, Intellitron also offers a line of premium quality tripods, masts, and hardware for building a portable antenna system that will put your signal on the map wherever you go! 

NOTE: Some applications for mounting may be hard the first time. The coating on the threads is a possible problem and eventually resolved itself thru usage.
