This group exists for owners and prospective owners of the Buddipole and its offspring, the Buddistick- both commercial and homebrew versions. We will provide you with any information request you need and invite you to join us in this group who are constantly improving the latest designs of this portable antenna system.

The light-weight compactable Buddipole system is easily the most flexible portable antenna in the world, is capable of being configured from 160m up thru UHF and beyond. BP knows no limits and experimentation with this "Lego" antenna has not yet found its bounds. Buddipoles are in use in the mid-east by military personnel.
