That's because it's not meant to be circularly polarized. You basically have two single-band antennas on a common boom. If yours has separate feedlines for each antenna you can either run two separate radios, or connect them both to a duplexer, and use the resulting single feedline to feed a single radio. 73, Jim KQ6EA
Are you referring to the 70cm/2m Arrow II antenna? I wasn't clear, but I'm talking about the dual 70cm:

Whoops! Didn't know they made those! Sorry for the confusion! Jim KQ6EA

Hey, no worries. I'm still very new to all this, and it was likely I misunderstood.
Now, why they sell this antenna, and don't provide a phasing cable (even at extra charge), is beyond me, but what do I know?
