Hy-Gain AV-18VS Five-Band HF Vertical Antennas
Hy-Gain AV-18VS Five-Band HF Vertical Antennas are trap-less, band-adjustable vertical antennas that are manually tuned to any single band, 10 thru 80 meters, by a simple adjustment of the feed point on the base inductor. These antennas are base loaded.
They are designed to be fed with 50 ohm coax, and work for DX or local contacts. They now feature stainless steel hardware for all electrical and most mechanical connections.
The antenna is self-supporting and can survive winds in excess of 80 mph. They are easily portable and knock down to an overall length of 5 feet. Like any ground-mounted vertical, the use of a radial system will improve performance. Due to the nature of manual band-changing, elevated installation should not be considered.
Whether fixed or portable, order Hy-Gain AV-18VS Five-Band HF Vertical Antennas from DX Engineering!
