AX1 Whip length (extended)

[Heinz Baertschi]

The length of the AX1 whip (extended) is specified in all documents as 45"
(115 cm).
Can someone please confirm what is correct, 45" or 115 cm?

73 tks,
Heinz HB9BCB

That length of 46.5 is for the whip itself. When inserted onto the antenna base, the whip measures 46 inches.

I measured mine using a cloth tape made for sewing and knitting.
I got 46.5" 118 cm.
Note that these tapes may stretch slightly, so these
measurements aren't accurate to the nearest mm.

Sorry,
That was a quick shot due to a false alarm - I had not put on my reading
glasses when reading on the calculator - and I was wrong by about 40
cm...for shame.
