Inverted L antenna with radiator and counterpoise for simple installation - choose 80/160 meters and 1.5KW/5KW feed line choke included inside weatherproof enclosure. Separate counterpoise and ground connections

* Complete package - just add coax

* works single band with ease

* can be configured as vertical or inverted L configuration

* Choice of 1.5K, or 5KW PEP rated choke to suit power needs

After many requests we have created a compact, special interface box with internal feed line choke and separate connections for counterpoises (not grounded) and ground connection. The 1:1 choke keeps RF current off the outside of the coax braid and on the antenna where it belongs. The extra choking action also means that the coax feed line will not act as a radiator causing unnecessary RF interference (RFI).

80 M radiator/counterpoise is 70 Feet (you get 1 each) - adjust length to your favorite frequency

160 M radiator/counterpoise is 130 Feet (you get 1 each) - adjust length to your favorite frequency

Antenna is tuned to you favorite frequency by shortening the counterpoise (roll it up or cur length) while keeping the radiator length constant.

Choose 1,5KW PEP or 5KW PEP options.

1.5KW and 5KW are in 4" x 4" x 2" enclosure. 1.5KW is 3 pounds, 5KW is 5 pounds. 2 antenna insulators are included.

ADD CMNF-1500 (1.5KW) or CMNF-5000 (5KW) common mode noise filter at radio end of coax to reduce common mode noise up to 6 "S" units on long coax runs!

TUBE feed line chokes/Line Isolators are used to suppress common mode current carried on the outside of the  coax braid which is often responsible for receiver noise and RFI in the receiver/transmitter. These chokes are very useful for suppressing RFI common mode current at the antenna feed point, at 1/4 wavelength intervals along the coax feed line and also at the entrance to the radio station.  They are available with various input and output connectors so as to conveniently connect to standard output connectors already installed on your feed line.

Palomar Engineers TUBE feed line chokes are designed to have 2-5 times more choking impedance over a broader frequency range than competitor units in similar packaging.  Each choke has the choking impedance and effective frequency range on the product label so you can choose the product best suited for your application.
