Overview

DX Engineering Band Link Kits

DX Engineering Band Link Kits (DXE-LINK-KIT) are insulators and wire clips, used to "add a band" to a portable wire antenna. These are the same band link parts as supplied with the DX Engineering Low Power Portable Dipole and Winder Kits. Band Links make manual band changes 'quick and easy' on portable 'low-to-the ground' resonant portable dipoles deployed as center-fed single support inverted-vee antennas, and on resonant end-fed antennas.

Band Links are sold as a pair for a dipole. Alligator clips on the corresponding pair of Band Links are disconnected to change the dipole to the next higher band and are connected to change the resonance to the lower band. Only one link changes the band on a resonant end-fed wire. Band Links can be used to change the resonant (low SWR) frequency of a dipole or end-fed from CW to digital, and another to phone, and so on.

Each DXE-LINK –KIT contains:
• 2 Link Insulators – which support the wire and may be used to "break up" the wire antenna into multiband sections.
• 4 Alligator Clips - two per Band Link.

Two Band Links, one for each wire antenna leg, are included with the DX Engineering Low Power Portable Dipole and Winder Kit to make it a two-band antenna. Adding this second pair would make the dipole a three-band antenna, and a third pair will make the dipole a four-band resonant antenna, and so on.
