Ben,

The Phelps Dodge/Cel Wave and now Cel Wave/? had 8 Mhz.

One thing to keep in mind.  The 150-160 version had 6 dbd gain, but due 
to the fiber glass enclosure being only so long one element had to be 
removed in the 140-150 MHz Ham version so gain was rated at 5.1 dbd.  
This was from long time ago and think still the same.

I really think most of these antennas are made for a band, not a 
frequency.  Like 150-160, 140-150, etc.  So if you buy one you will get 
off the shelf version, not one cut for your freq.  Many suppliers have 
a stock of them.  If one looks at the SWR graph one sees a range and 
1.5:1 seems to be the standard to mark the band limits.  Some might 
actually cut for the actual ordered freq like with duplexers.
