Overview

Hustler 4-BTV 4-Band HF Vertical Antennas

Hustler 4-BTV antennas are 4-band trap vertical antennas that provide an omnidirectional pattern. The 4-BTVs are self-supporting verticals designed to give optimum operation in the 10, 15, 20, and 40 meter bands. They can also be upgraded to operate on 75 or 80 meters. These antennas perform well in restricted-space areas. For optimal performance, radial wires should be used. Hustler 4-BTV antennas provide a selection of electrical 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. Hustler 4-BTV antennas are designed to provide optimum performance from both an electrical and mechanical standpoint. Mechanically, these antennas boast 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 4BTV antennas is better than any other antennas of their type. Broadbanding is such that one measurement and setting permit both phone and CW operation. These antennas provide a nominal 52 ohm base impedance when installed and tuned. The radiation efficiency is equivalent to, or greater than, other trap verticals.
