What wave length would the other be for? To get the wave length that a frequency falls in, just divide 300 by the frequency. 220 would be 1.36 meters. If the other band that the radio does is 2 meters, you would use the smaller antenna. Glenn
Both antennas are shorter than the wavelength for the VHF band that they are designed operate on. The physical length of the single band 220 antenna and the dual band 144/440 antenna are the same (hence the problem identifying them visually).
