This 450 Ohm ladder line comprises poly-coated open wire. It is much easier to handle than open wire feeder yet retains its ultra low loss feature.  This feed-line will handle 1 kilowatt with ease and is far superior to conventional ribbon type.

BUX stix  HF antennas for Mobile and Base Applications:
 
Power Rated at 250 Watts P E P;   Typical 2:1.VSWR band width is:

·        75 meter: 40 KHz.         40 Meter: 60 KHz.
·
        20 Meter: 150 KHz.      17 Meter: 175 KHz.
·
        15 Meter: 200 KHz.      12 Meter: 300 KHz.
·
        10 Meter: 500 KHz.        6  Meter: 1000 Khz.

TUNING INSTRUCTIONS:
Insert the whip into lower section ferrule about four inches (as shown at right) and tighten set screw.   Assemble with fiberglass lower section (as shown at left). Install a VSWR meter at the transceiver and apply 10 to 25 watts of power. Adjust the VSWR meter and output frequency for lowest VSWR reading, indicating resonance.  If resonant frequency is too high, loosen set screw and extend top whip until desired resonant frequency is found.  If  resonant frequency is too low, loosen set screw and adjust whip further into lower section.  For best results,
adjustments should be made in small increments. 

CAUTION:  If required, cut off the bottom of the whip to ensure it does not extend down into the coil of the antenna.  Failure to observe this precaution will cause heat damage and void any warranty.  At resonance, VSWR should be 1.5:1 or less when properly matched. When tuning is complete, tighten set screws securely.   NOTE: Bandwidth and VSWR will vary due to   mounting location.  If your installation has a VSWR over 1.5:1 at resonance, or you need to operate over a greater bandwidth a tuner may be required.

 

DBLSPCL (without BUX UNUN (ONION)

When the stations with the gain and power in their antennas are transmitting in the horizontal plane, then you should be meeting them in the same plane.  Horizontal signals tend to follow the earths contour, and are easier to capture using a horizontally polarized antenna.  See the BUX UNUN elsewhere on this page.

By combining a pair (two) of the single band HF Mobile (loaded) tuneable-tip antennas above, you can have an ideal, single element, horizontal dipole (beam). This type antenna opens the world of HF communications for the apartment dweller, RV HAM, field-day operating, and a variety of other uses and applications.  The packages described below include two antenna, the Double Antenna-Bracket (DBLBRKT), and mounting hardware.  $ 39.97 DBLSPCL (without BUX UNUN (ONION)
