10 m Dipole Length Calculator

Post by IB4TL »


This tool calculates the physical dimensions of a 10 meter dipole antenna.

At 10 meters, the dipole length (L) is 15.61 feet. The length of each element of the dipole (l) is half of that at 7.81 feet.

Payment options Formula The total length (L) of the dipole antenna is calculated as:

L = 468 / f

where f is the frequency in MHz.

f is calculated from the wavelength. For 10 m the frequency is 29.98 MHz.

The length of each arm of the dipole

l = L/2
