Price!The DX Engineering Dual Band
THUNDERBOLT™
40/30 Meter Vertical Antenna is a high performance
dual
band pile-up buster that is tunable to operate with an SWR of 1.5:1 or
less across both bands. The maximum power rating assures solid performance
- particularly on CW, and the digital modes so popular on 30
meters!
The massive fiberglass channel insulator supporting the
rugged structural grade type 6063-T832 drawn aluminum antenna radiator has over
twice the tensile and flexural strength of competitive nylon materials, and is
superior for its RF handling characteristics.
Designed with rugged 6063
heat treated, corrosion-resistant aluminum tubing and stainless steel hardware,
this antenna is very durable, free standing, attractive, and is an optimized
height of less than 30 feet!
Now you can have full quarterwave
performance on both bands - no compromise!
This is the
perfect solution for the DXer who has not been able to enjoy top performance on
the 30 meter band! Now, both 40 and 30 in one antenna - no
bandswitching! Now you can hear and work the weak ones!
Of
course, another key to performance is a good ground radial system. 32 radials,
32 feet long are recommended. Fewer radials will work, but with diminished
results.
The 40-30 Meter Vertical Antenna includes the antenna
element, insulated fiberglass mounting channel, mounting plate, Tilt Base,
stainless steel hardware, and stainless steel element
clamps.
Features
• Full band coverage on 40
and 30 meters with SWR under 1.5:1 No Tuner needed
•40m bandwidth
greater than 750 kHz with SWR under 2:1
• Tunable above and below 7 MHz
range for MARS and CAP frequencies
• Maximum Legal Power Handling
•
Optimum 30 ft overall height
• Self Supporting design to withstand 60 MPH
wind without guying

DXE-4030VA-1 Dual Band Vertical Antenna Instructions (1060K pdf)
The DXE-4030VA-1 features a laser-cut stainless steel tilt base assembly, not aluminum and painted steel used by others.
The massive fiberglass channel insulator supporting the rugged structural grade type 6063-T832 drawn aluminum antenna radiator has over twice the tensile and flexural strength of competive nylon materials, and is superior for its RF handling characteristics.
The overall maximum length of the radiating element is 30 feet, with a single trap - making it resonant in both the 40 and 30 meter bands for fantastic DX performance. You get full-size performance on both bands - no bandswitching!
All hardware fasteners are stainless steel, not common steel bolts - and the element clamps are all-stainless steel , not stainless with common steel screws.
The DXE-4030VA-1 vertical antenna system includes the antenna elements, mounting plate, tilt-base, balun, stainless steel hardware and clamps.
Uncompromised Radiation Efficiency for That Pile-up Busting Signal!
- Full band coverage on both bands - no tuner required
- Full length performance – Maximum Radiation Efficiency
- Maximum Legal Power Handling - with ease!
- Quarter wavelength radiating element - both bands
