Dipole Antenna Calculator | MGC Tech Tips

Dipole antennas are one of the most basic and easiest antenna to build. It is effective and uses minimal materials to construct. Suitable for limited spaces that only needs halfwave lengths and above ground.

Below is a calculator for a simple dipole antenna, kindly enter your desired frequency in megahertz in order to get your approximate lengths for the elements or total length of the dipole.

Please take note that these are approximate values. There are other factors that you need to consider, like element diameter and material(copper, aluminum, etc.). Cut the elements a little longer to have allowance, then trim it down to length to get the best possible SWR value.
