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

* 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!

 

Also make sure you connect a good RF ground to the transceiver ground post.

Note to Flex Radio users:  Use snap on ferrites for firewire cable, speaker cable and mic cable,  Ring ferrites for Antenna output and DC power.

For additional RFI suppression, use a feed line choke at the antenna to suppress common current on the coax feed line – see our store for feed line choke alternatives for use at the antenna.

 

If you use a linear amplifier we have RFI kits for linear amplifiers that help suppress RFI in your shack or in your neighbor’s house.
