Bullet Antenna End Fed Antenna Counterpoise Kit (41/71/92/111/155 Ft. Antenna Lengths)Product DetailsBrand: Palomar EngineesUPC: Does not applyMPN: BULLET-CPKType: NEWCountry/Region of Manufacture: USAThe “Bullet” End Fed Antenna Counterpoise Kit
Th kit contains 1 pre-assembled counterpoise wire which easily attaches to the counterpoise connector on the BULLET matching unit. Improves performance on 1 or more bands. Black/Gray/Blue wire is standard.
Application Note: This kit is typically used with only with Bullet Antenna systems like the 41 foot, 71 foot, 92 foot, 111 foot or 155 foot when you DO NOT USE the coax braid as the counterpoise (such as when you coax is too short). The counterpoise radiates just like the other half of a dipole so DO NOT GROUND IT! It is used to fine tune particular bands (by varying the length to get the lowest SWR reading on as many bands as possible. Multiple length counterpoises can also be used if needed for a particular band) if your particular antenna geometry doesn't show a low enough SWR on a particular band.
Suggested counterpoise lengths are as follows:
41 foot antenna wire needs a 16 foot length (20 feet of wire supplied so you can adjust as needed by folding back on itself)
71 foot antenna wire needs a 42-50 foot length (50 feet of wire supplied so you can adjust as needed by folding back on itself)
92 foot antenna wire needs a 90 foot length (100 feet of wire supplied so you can adjust as needed by folding back on itself)
111 foot antenna wire needs a 37 foot length (50 feet of wire supplied so you can adjust as needed by folding back on itself)
155 foot antenna wire needs a 95 foot length (100 feet of wire supplied so you can adjust as needed by folding back on itself)
