2.4 & 5.8 GHz WIFI antenna can be devided?

[AmateurRadist 4]

Hi!

I had 2.4Ghz & 5-5.8GHz 14dbi panel antenna, I'm wondering if i want to have signle band antenna like only for 2.4Ghz and only 5.8GHz antenna - can i cut somewhere in middle and still have good vswr? Antenna made of galvanized steel, here is the drawings of it?

I tried to cut right next to the soldering pin and assembled antenna but vswr was around 1.8-2.2 while factory vswr is 1.3-1.5

any help is appreciated

thanks

Most interesting part is that original factory antenna's vswr showing sometimes good vswr, sometimes bad depending on analyzer-antenna cable jumper's position, like if i bend it's good, i'm using jdsu celladvisor

Vswr is good why you think it is not good?

I cut right next to solder pin and it showed good results like peak 1.8 at 2.3-2.5ghz with a good cable, but 5.8 didn't work yet

I tried like this but still fail

After 10 failed attempts I think deviding was not good idea, so friends just use antenna as it is, hope above information will be useful to someone thanks
