is this antenna working with 11 meter

Without an swr matcher, the A99 runs 40 CB channels well has below 1.5 swr match right out of the box - I use a matcher and get 12, 11, 10 meters - 22-30 mH...handles linear amp power well. never adjust rings. Use very good low loss cable. Great for freaked radios-covers easily above and below 11 meters. Coil system discharges static electricity build up, so helps with lightning protection. 3 fiber glass sections-18 feet high - works mounted low too, since has low radiation with optional radisals. Handles weather, rain/wind well. Have had couple since the 80's, I think. A99 is half wave, better than 1/4 wave, OR maybe upgrade to 5/8 wave--A99 is kind of a beginners antenna, with a good $ price.

The A-99 Works both 11 and 10 meters. You must however adjust the SWR rings accordingly .Usually kept in the middle unless factory set already.Hope this helps JB

My worked out of the box no adjustments needed swr was perfect,very happy with it

Yes, and you may not even have to adjust it. It comes with instructions for installation and tuning fot 10 and 11 meters. You may not even have to adjust it as it is tuned to USA Ch 19.

This antenna is a dual band 2 meter 440 antenna and it works well on my Kenwood dual band mobile so it should work well on a single band 2 meter rig as well!

10m 6m 2m or 70cm depending on the band you want to use..... do you even have a ham radio license ?? if yes you should know the answer

I use one for FM USB 10-15 meters with an external auto tuner (LDG 100ProII) and have talked round the world. Limited results on 17 meters below that you are out of luck. If you need something simple for 10-20 meter antenna take a look at the Hy-Gain 12AVQ if you want to work even lower bands than 20 check out the Hustler BTV series of antennas. www.eham.com is a great shopping tool for reviews because they are not a retail sales site. You would need to look at HF Verticals and Wire category.

Yes, with a tuner capable of a 3.1 mismatch. If not using a tuner, like with an import 10/12 meter radio, you'd need to just cut both ends to be resonant on 10 meters. You know you can just buy a 10 meter dipole ready to go?

I have just used the antenna that came with my radio and it has worked fine. I make sure that the antenna is straight and fastened at a height that is higher than the radio. And be sure that the antenna is pushed in as far as it can.

I think if you plugged it in to the box that says antenna, it will work. But I don't have a definite answer,sorry.

Don't know, but the connection on the new antenna is 1/4-20 thread. These units did nothing for range enhancement.

I don't know, but can tell you that our broadcast towers are about 25 miles away..tho they are up high on a ridge with nothing in the way. It works fine at this distance.

The antenna should work on the 2 meter band but don't try to use it on 220. I wasn't impressed with this antenna on 2 meters but it might be ok on 440. MFJ has one that will work on all 3 bands.The model number is, MFJ-1718S. The antenna can be viewed at: http://www.mfjenterprises.com/Product.php?productid=MFJ-1718S. Not many guys run the 220 Mhz band since the FCC wantedto give it away so they shied away from it and I suspect that's why it's not very popular. 73sDennis

I have no idea but theoretically it shouldn't need it. All I know is that it did not work at all for me. I returned it and I had to go back to a regular traditional style antenna.

Yes. I can't remember how much is on it but you should run at least 18 feet to get great reception. There is 10 or 12 feet connected to it from the factory

Don't know. I used it with a Clear Stream C2-V Outdoor antenna from Antennas Direct. This is a 50 mile antenna. It worked great.

I have a place in northeast Wisconsin and I am 72 miles from Green Bay, Wi and I now receive all the channels from Green Bay. I have the antenna only about 12 feet off the ground right now. So I would have to say the antenna works very well.

I used the antenna that came with the product... not sure of the specs Sorry

It is odd. That antenna falls outside the Amateur bands for the 220 MHZ part of the spectrum. You'll find in operation the radio works fine on 2 meters, but not well at all on 220. There's nothing wrong with the radio. Just get yourself a replacement antenna. In fact get yourself a tri-band antenna. I know someone who did and it has worked just fine. This is a case of Baofeng not giving you a good stock antenna again. Try a Jet Stream or Comet antenna. Good luck!!!
