For a special package with the UNUN - AND the patented DX Engineering Stainless Steel Radial Plate with extra hardware, see model DXE-MBVE-1-4UPR.

The DX Engineering MBVE-1 is a 43 foot, high performance 160 thru 10 meter vertical multi-band antenna that is tunable to operate with an SWR of 1.5:1 or less.  Tuning is accomplished by using the DX Engineering Multi-Band Vertical UNUN with coax feed and your in-shack wide-range tuner - or by installing an automatic tuner at the base of the antenna.  A 200 watt plug and play package including an antenna-mounted automatic tuner is now available for 80 thru 10 meters by ordering DXE-MBVE-1-3ATP.

Our testing of the 43-foot antennas with 150 feet of quality Belden RG-213/U coaxial cable and the MFJ-993B automatic antenna tuner has yielded excellent results at the 100 watt power level.

**160 Meter Notes**

The massive EXTREN® 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 plastic materials, and is superior for its RF handling characteristics. Never use nylon insulators around RF!

Free-standing to 90 mph wind speeds, the antenna is complete with the DX Engineering Heavy Duty Tilt Base which enables operators to raise or lower the antenna in seconds while leaving the base securely attached to the mounting post. With the Tilt Base, one person can service an antenna—no more climbing ladders, or removing a bracket from the support post.

The DXE-UN-43 high power Multi-Band Vertical UNUN delivers the power to your antenna with minimum loss. This results in improved performance on the lowest frequency bands, and the strongest signal your antenna is capable of producing with the lowest SWR under given conditions. The UNUN mounting kit and tinned coper braid connection kit permit a complete, easy installation.

WHAT DOES “BETTER” MEAN?  MORE EXPENSIVE?  WE DON’T THINK SO!

 

We at DX Engineering make great use of superior quality Stainless Steel in the design and construction of our antenna and antenna accessory products.  Regardless of the thickness of aluminum structural materials, rapid onset of corrosion erodes and weakens the aluminum material to the eventual point of disintegration. 

 

Our Stainless Steel mounting brackets and radial plates are laser-cut by the latest state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment.  We are much more than a machine shop or an aluminum packaging assembly line.

 

All DX Engineering antennas are designed and optimized on our test range, and don’t become products until approved by our Chief Engineer.  We don’t rely on anecdotal “Gotham Vertical” advertising stories about the signal reports others give you.  We know how our antennas work and why.  Our Technical Service staff is available to answer your questions, and to help you maximize performance from your installation with accurate, common sense solutions.  For example - if you mounted your antenna on a hillside, why would you want to tilt it toward the downslope side?

What you always get from DX Engineering is 100% premium quality products and support - never shortcuts or budget line cheapened versions to compete with our correct, lower prices.  Why pay more?
 

Straight talk - not hearsay stories!

 

Our massive EXTREN® channel base insulator has over twice the tensile and flexural strength of competitive nylon plastsic materials, and is superior for its RF handling characteristics.  This insulator design has been proven for years - it was the design chosen for the harsh Antarctic environment by the team at 3Y0X Peter I Island in 2006.  Years of use in the Australian interior and arid southwest US further attest to its reliability.    

 

Many of you have experienced antenna insulator failures due to the inferior characteristics of nylon in the presence of RF.  Nylon was discarded as an RF insulator by the antenna industry years ago.  Costly, inferior materials and design do not justify higher prices. 

 

Unwarranted cost does not make a “better” antenna.  Why pay for it?
