Capt hook, Yes the Mosely TA-33 can be used on the 11 Meter CB Band. People have used them on 10-12-15 meters & you would just have to tune it for the 11 Meter band or use a good tuner. As for the perfoamance you would have on 11 meters I could not say. Lon Tech808 |

Capt. I have a TA-34 XL Mosley. I've used only the driven element at this point as a dipole and had to fine-tune 20 meters to my situation. As Lon states, it can be retuned most certainly. You may have to fudge around with the rest of the elements (directors and reflector) to get what you feel is adequate for your situation. Let me just say this also. I read a couple other of your posts. Just a heads up if you didn't know, DONT turn this antenna vertically. Not only would you have some undue stressing, but your traps will possibly fill with moisture...not a good thing. Not that you would do this with this particualr antenna....but just a word of warning IF you were contemplating it. Good luck! Mosley makes a nice antenna.--73 |
