Many thanks. I'm not sure if my bracket is 3 inches or 4. I built it years ago. I'll probably drill a couple of extra holes for the U bolts so my climber has options on the 2.4GHz.
I remember the mount was taller than most of the antenna I've used, but the one I have in service is a bit out of reach at the moment. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mathew Howard To: af Sent: Monday, July 20, 2015 10:28 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] ARC DP Omni mounting dimensions The distance between the U bolts on the 5ghz 13dbi is 2 7/8" center to center, and the base is 4" tall overall. the 2.4ghz 13dbi is 3 5/8" between the U bolts and the base is 5".

Too late now. 5GHz is very low usage here though. I had 6dBi on the tower before. I pretty much only use 5GHz for those that can actually see the tower. I probably could have done just as well with the 10dBi version. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mathew Howard To: af Sent: Saturday, July 18, 2015 5:15 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] ARC DP Omni mounting dimensions From memory, I'd guess it's about 3.5-4 inches... I could measure one Monday. I'd really suggest staying away from the Arc 5ghz dual polarity omnis - they have horrible patterns. The 2.4ghz version is fine though.

I ordered ARC 5GHz 13dBi dual polarity omni and 2.4GHz 13dBi dual polarity omni. In the datasheet it says it will work from .75 inch to 3 inch pipe. It doesn't have a measurement from top U bolt to bottom U bolt. Anyone have those measurements? I'm pretty sure that I'm going to have to modify the bracket in use or build another.
