I attempted to contact K40 about the wavelength of their k40bcmax antenna after seeing one for sale locally, no answer from them & the seller doesn't know what 1/4, 1/2, etc means.
Nothing on the packaging nor anywhere I looked online.
Any idea as to what the answer is? Also anyone have experience with these, any good?
Any idea on what the wavelength is on these?

This is a good antenna. It covers some of 10 meters and all of 11, very wide banded. It is a heavy antenna and needs a heavy duty mount.
GGALLIN1776 Thanks this. -
I don't expect sellers to know this, and K40 guys if I remember didn't design any of their antennas themselves, or at least never did so I don't expect them to know.GGALLIN1776 Thanks this. -

I made a home brew mag mount constructed from four fishing magnets & T shape of 1" steel pipe to clamp onto, that only dropped once (untrimmed monster limb struck mid-whip).
Thankfully had enough weight/clamp force to grab the cab side almost immediately rather than a drop & dangle or worse.
I believe each magnet claimed something like 150-250lbs of force....it took some real oomph to relocate but pretty sure those numbers were still wayyy over the actual clamp force being harbor freight purchases.
