This Antenna Has
Extremely Low Visibility!
Another unique antenna from B & W!
Utilizing the same technology as our folded dipoles, it can offer fully automatic, low SWR operation
over the entire HF band without need for an antenna tuner. This antenna features grounded operation, excellent for
low to ground
and metal roof top installations. They are
frequency agile, which is a necessity to operate ALE capable radios. They
will propagate NVIS, local, medium or long distance. Try that with a
vertical! Delivery of the quietest possible reception is integral to the
design, with automatic static bleed off from wind or thunderstorms. Ready
to go right out of the box, no taps to change, nothing to tune - ever!
Designed for the military and built to last.
Work any
frequency you want without going through a lot of knob twirling and measurements
to get a good SWR match - just set your frequency and go!
Why utilize a broadband antenna?
| MARS,
ARES, RACES, CAP, Amateur |
This one antenna does all of your
"out of band" frequencies! If your frequencies change it
isn't a problem. For regular amateurs, it is a single antenna
solution. |
|
Cost |
Low cost compared to multiband antennas. Utilize one antenna instead of
several. No need for an antenna tuner. No antenna
switches needed. |
|
Performance |
Not limited to conventional ham bands. Tune any
frequency in the antenna's bandwidth, and have VSWR of 2:1 or
better. Capture weak signals in receive mode. Much better
performance than any vertical. Very reliable. |
|
Simple to Use |
Work any
frequency you want without going through a lot of knob twirling and measurements
to get a good SWR match. |
- This unique antenna design covers a continuous frequency
range of 1.8 to 30 Mhz, with a VSWR of less than 2:1 across the entire range
when fed with a 50 ohm coaxial cable. No antenna tuner is required. There
are no adjustments required when changing frequency, making operation simple
for untrained commercial personnel, amateurs, and professionals alike.
The fact that this antenna is terminated gives
the advantage of EMI rejection far greater than that of other antennas, making receive mode extra quiet. There
are no mechanical parts like relays or motors to wear out, as in some other
broadband tuning systems!
It's Simple . . . It's
Reliable . . . It Works!
The antenna is terminated at both ends by ground stakes (not included.).
The center of the antenna must be supported approximately 25 - 30 Ft
above the ground. A counterpoise wire (supplied) may be necessary to join
the two ground locations, especially in roof top or other applications
where uncertain ground conditions exist. The antenna is omnidirectional at
the lower frequencies, with mostly high angle radiation useful for long
distance. From approximately 5 to 15 MHz, the radiation at lower angles
increases, and above 15 MHz the antenna becomes more directional in the
line of the antenna wire, toward the balancing network. In applications
where space is limited, the wire may be shortened without greatly
affecting the VSWR, but lowering the radiation efficiency.
