Hello All, I have two used 2MCP22 beams and have found that the element lenghts on one are 1" shorter than on the other..Does anyone know if this is a problem or not? Some difference in boom but the same length over all. The elements do not look like they have been cut off..anyone have any clues to the difference?

Hi Steve, KB9UPS
It is possible that 2MCP22 with 1" longher elements are for 144-146 MHz while the other one with 1" shorter elements are for 146-148 MHz
It happens the same to me years ago with Cushcraft crossed yagi A144-20T cutted for the above different segments of 2 meters band.
