Don't forget to order a tilt base , radial plate and NEW SO-239 connector add-on kit now. The Hustler 4-BTV is a four-band, trap vertical antenna that provides an omni directional pattern. The 4-BTV is designed as a self-supporting vertical to give optimum operation in the 10, 15, 20 and 40 meter bands. It can also be upgraded to operate on 75 or 80 meters. This antenna performs well in restriced space areas. For optimal performance, radial wires should be used. The Hustler 4-BTV provides electrical selection of bands through the use of optimum Q traps, which are individually and precisely tuned and internally sealed at the factory. The traps are parallel tuned circuits which provide efficient isolation between the vertical sections, permitting multi-band operation. Broadband operation, with low SWR over the entire ham band, is possible in a proper installation. The Hustler 4-BTV was designed to provide optimum performance from both an electrical and mechanical standpoint. Mechanically, this antenna boasts a heavy duty base and heavy duty aluminum tubing. The mechanical assembly is accomplished with all stainless steel hardware. The performance provided by the Hustler 4-BTV is better than any other antenna of this type. Broad banding is such that one measurement and setting permits both phone and CW operation. The antenna provides a nominal 52 ohm base impedance when installed and tuned. The radiation efficiency is equivalent to, or greater than, other trap verticals.
- Easy to assemble and tune
- Band coverage: 10, 15, 20 & 40 meters
- In deed restriced areas, all BTV models may be disguised as a flag pole. Disguised Flagpole article (720 K pdf)
- The DX Engineering Tilt Base allows the antenna to be easily brought down during non-operating times or for tuning and maintenance.
For the most accurate tuning and best performance, we recommend using the MFJ-259B antenna analyzer while adjusting lengths and recalibrating traps. Many DX Engineering accessories for the Hustler BTV antennas are available for a complete, high performing installation - see a complete description in Make the Hustler BTV Series Antenna into a High Performance Vertical Antenna System (509k pdf). This will answer all your questions:
- Ground, roof or elevated mount?
- Radials or no radials?
- What accessories do I need?
- How about WARC band operation?
- ...and much more!
For an easy, neat and effective way to connect those essential radial wires and the coax to your vertical antenna and for the strongest signal possible use the DX Engineering Stainless Steel Radial Plate and Accessories. If you wish to reduce feedline radiation and improve the performance of your Hustler BTV or any vertical antenna, a DX Engineering Vertical Feedline Current Choke Kit is recommended.
