Extra! Extra! Greyline Performance is shipping another batch of Flagpole Antennas. Have you reserved yours?

Pictured: 50 Greyline Flagpole Antennas shipping to Amateur Radio operators.

Note: All hardware is attached upon arrival. You will need to remove a couple of bolts from one end of each section to slide the next over and re-fasten. Repeat from the bottom up. Simple enough, right?

October 10, 2022 [update]

We've stocked the shelves again with 100 antennas on the shelf ready to fly home to you. Packages shipping daily.

Warm-up those HF ham radios the bands are heating up! We are grateful to announce that a group of lucky (and patient) radio operators are about to open their wireless ticket to the world…

Want to see how we assemble the sections together? The link below shows a teenage girl, or young lady (YL) taking a box off this same stack pictured and assembling a GP24, a 24-foot Greyline Flagpole Antenna, in 15-minutes (minus the feed system kit).

Sample Assembly Look Book

Last summer we put together another series of assembly pictures and videos in rural Alaska.

Sample Assembly with Video

Highlights worthy of note:

This Video shows the smooth, firm fit of the sections and how they go together.

This image shows round metal rods inside the antenna tubing. "What is that," you ask? This is to avoid through-bolting which can be problematic for those of us with big wrenches. This helps us all avoid that.

Pro-tip: Remember to remove only the two bolts (not all four) where the next section will slide over, and then replace the hardware.

For more install and assembly help, see our Assembly Documents linked at the bottom of every page.

24' Fag pole antenna

I'm very happy with the Greyline Flag pole antenna, easy to install and the shipping was fast with all the parts arriving at the same time.

Great product

I'm very happy with this antenna. It works wonderful and I couldn't be happier.

DX 24' Flagpole is a Super Awesome Antenna

I originally installed a Greyline DX 24' Flagpole, in my covenant restricted area,
about 3.5 years ago and made several thousand OSOs. Super quality material, was
easy to install and performed better than expected from my noisy locale.

Due to some issues with the park I live in and some performance degradation, I decided to
refurb the installation with new feedline, balun (my tuner does not have a built-in balun)
choke and the ladder line. During the process, I found a frayed part of the internal
ladder line that look like it was chewed on and a few other minor issues (weather related)

Needless to say, it fired up first time with no issues (I followed the tips) and seeing
signals and S levels I haven't seen in awhile..

The DX Flagpole antennas are well worth the investment as they work extremely well,
made of highest quality materials that will last for a very long time.

Longest QSO was about 12,500 miles on FT8. Super awesome.

Fun Plus

Looks great and works even better. I hear more stations on my regular nets than I normally do. I used stone papers for a rectangular wall around the flagpole which matches the house. A beautiful, wonderful, addition to my hoa property.

A positive upgrade...

I was impressed with the quality of the antenna tubing used. It's not the normal aluminum used by the other manufacturers, but a precision machined tubing. It fit together tightly with the thick fiberglass insulating sections. Using the LDG-RT600 remote antenna tuner, it tuned very well on 40-6 (I don't use 160/80) as a ground-mounted 28 ft. vertical dipole and really captures the DX! My QSO and country count really started accelerating from where it was. I live on a small corner lot with no HOA, and have no real trees for antenna supports. I can now reach AUS and the South Pacific with ease from the East Coast of the USA. I had a special installation so it took me about 5 hours to install by myself (several trips to several hardware stores for clamps, all-thread and such). It was pretty much a 'remove and replace' with the old antenna. All-in-all, it was a worthwhile investment and upgrade, I love this thing!
