Intellitron TA-1317 17ft Stainless Steel Telescopic Antenna 3/8-24

Whether you are activating a remote peak for SOTA or setting up a quick deployment in the backyard, the Intellitron TA-1317 is the high-performance vertical solution you’ve been looking for. Engineered for the serious ham radio operator, this 17-foot stainless steel whip combines extreme portability with the rugged durability required for field operations.

Why Choose the Intellitron TA-1317?
The TA-1317 is designed to eliminate the common frustrations of portable antennas. Most telescopic whips suffer from flimsy joints or lost end-tips; however, the TA-1317 features swage-reinforced slip-joints to ensure electrical continuity and mechanical rigidity even in breezy conditions. The machined end-ball is integrated into the design, meaning it won’t loosen or fall off in the brush.

At a full 17 feet of extension, this antenna allows for native quarter-wave resonance on the 20-meter band without the need for lossy loading coils. Despite its impressive reach, it collapses down to just 24 inches, fitting easily into a backpack or go-bag. Constructed from premium stainless steel, it resists corrosion and “element stick,” ensuring smooth deployment every time you hit the airwaves.

Combine a pair of TA-1317 antennas with the Intellitron AA-1602 dipole mount to create a multi-band rotatable dipole.
