DX Engineering Rope Hardware Kits
DX Engineering Rope Hardware Kits are exactly what you need for all kinds of antenna projects that use support rope. Designed especially for use in conjunction with Mastrant Antenna Support Rope, these rope hardware kits provide just the right size pulleys, shackles, rope clips, duplex clips, carabiners, thimbles and quick links to facilitate fast and easy rigging, raising and lowering of wire antennas and guying of vertical antennas and antenna supports. They're great for experimenters, SWLs and Radio Amateurs who need to frequently adjust or "tinker" with their antennas. When used with new wire antenna installations, these products and Mastrant Antenna Support Rope allow for easy trimming or retuning of mono and multiband dipoles, end-feds, slopers and all types of wire antennas. Just lower, trim, and raise your antenna again until it's just right. For vertical antennas and support masts, use these kits for an installation that can be adjusted and disconnected easily, without having to constantly re-tie knots and deal with tangled excess rope. These kits feature stainless steel and metal-alloy parts for excellent durability and weather resistance. They will last a very long time. Are you raising a wire or vertical antenna or mast, or are using support rope on another project where strength and convenience are equally important? Consider using Rope Hardware Kits from DX Engineering for a professional looking project that really is stronger and is SO much easier to work on!

DX Engineering Feedpoint Wire and Connector Assemblies
DX Engineering Feedpoint Wire and Connector Assemblies provide a new and unique method of feeding an antenna radiating element. A ring terminal with a 1/4 in. hole is crimped and soldered to a 12 in. long insulated 14 AWG stranded copper wire, complete with weather-protective heat shrink tubing. Then, these feed point wires are terminated to the center pin of an N-type male or UHF male PL-259 with special insulating sleeves and weather-sealing heat shrink. These assemblies are intended to be used with a double female bulkhead connector, mounted into the Radial Plate, for use on an HF vertical antenna, for example. This wire and connector combination allows for the complete weather sealing of a single wire feed point, while properly terminating the feedline shield to the radial system or ground point of the antenna system. Especially useful for phased vertical installations, the DX Engineering Feedpoint Wire and Connector Assemblies are ready for your special antenna projects!

DX Engineering Feedpoint Connectors
DX Engineering Feedpoint Connectors provide a direct transition from coaxial cable to feedpoint for Yagi, Loop Fed Arrays (LFA), Rotatable Dipoles and other antennas that do not have a coaxial connector. Three Feedpoint Connector types are available; SO-239 UHF Female, Type-N Female and 7-16 DIN Female. Each Feedpoint Connector (FPC) features silver-soldered solid tinned-copper 12 AWG wire leads to the connector, which is epoxy potted into a plastic housing, 1.573 inch square and 0.787 inch deep, for a weather-sealed direct feedpoint connection. Of course, additional weatherproofing should be applied to the male to female connector junction, as is typically suggested. DX Engineering Feedpoint Connectors' two wire leads are about 4 in. each, for connection to balanced driven elements of beams and rotatable dipoles on which a coaxial connector does not exist. A longer length of wire is easily soldered to these tinned wires, if required, but increasing connection spacing drives up feedpoint impedance and increases the possibility of mismatch. FPCs are ideal for antennas, especially phased antenna pairs or multiples, on which a coaxial cable ferrite RF bead choke is required at the feedpoint, in place of a traditional enclosed balun. DXE-FPC units do not have mounting clamps, straps or holes. They are intended to be supported by the coax cable attachment to the boom or mast and by the connections to the antenna. An appropriate center insulator kit, such as the DXE-UWA-KIT and coaxial cable strain relief, DXE-CSR213-1, can accommodate the use of Feedpoint Connectors SO-239 UHF Female, Type-N and 7-16DIN for specialized and high power wire antennas, also accommodating a ferrite RF Bead Choke on the RG-213U size coax cable, 0.405 in. diameter.

DX Engineering Receive Filters
DX Engineering Receive Filters are available individually for use in the NCC-2, RPA-2, RTR-2 or DMC-2 with adapter boards. These filters are also available in sets with mounting fixtures for use in the NCC-1. DX Engineering Receive Filters are numbered for the key Amateur Band on which they function. The Band Pass filter models pass RF only on the numbered band, the High Pass models function on that band and all device frequencies above, and the Low Pass models work on that band and all device frequencies below. Response plots for Receive Filters are conveniently listed on a single page in this product's detail web page tab labeled "Charts and Guides". Some users will want to use a pair of these filters with two of the required DXE-RXFL-1 Filter Adapter Boards in their NCC-2. Each individual filter used requires a DXE-RXFL-1 Single Filter Adapter Board to convert them for installation in DX Engineering device models DXE-NCC-2, DXE-RPA-2, DXE-RTR-2 or DXE-DMC-2. All of the RXFL filters are still available in paired sets including two filters and one filter mounting fixture for owners of the legacy NCC-1 unit. See the Receive Filter Sets in combo packages by entering NCC-1 into the search box above.

DX Engineering Bead Choke Standoff Kits
DX Engineering Bead Choke Standoff Kits bring a practical solution to a serious problem when ferrite chokes are placed directly onto the metal boom at the feedpoint of beam antennas. A number of Amateur Radio operators and antenna engineers have known for years about the superior choking function of many ferrite toroids beads placed directly on the coaxial cable, as compared to standard feedpoint baluns. A more recent revelation is that the proximity of ferrite beads on coax taped to the aluminum boom of the antenna drastically reduces their effectiveness. DX Engineering Bead Choke Standoff Kits are mounting systems, made of fiberglass or acetyl standoff rods (color varies), PVC carriers and stainless steel hardware, available in four versions. Two sizes of PVC cradle tubes handle two different types of RF bead chokes; 3/4 inch outside diameter (OD) ferrite beads on RG-400 size cable, and 1 inch OD ferrite beads on RG-213 size 0.405 in. coax cable. Each are offered with two different boom size clamps, 2 inch OD and 3 inch OD. Bead Choke Standoff Kits simply hold an RF bead choke and feedline 4 inches away from the metal beam antenna boom (or 4 inches away from the metal mast for a dipole). They maintain the optimal choking performance of ferrite beads on coax. Using DX Engineering Bead Choke Standoff Kits, ferrite bead chokes function at peak performance for these key results: • Prevent feedline radiation of RF • Preserve current balance for proper beam antenna pattern • Prevent feedline shield exterior collected noise and signals from entering the antenna and interior of the feedline, resulting in lower noise floor and enhanced reception The absolute superiority of RF chokes made of many beads on the feedline, over the traditional enclosure balun, is becoming better understood in Amateur Radio. They achieve the best possible RF isolation of the feedline from the antenna and provide completely balanced currents at the feedpoint. Plus, they provide quieter reception with reduction of common-mode noise. Keeping Bead RF Chokes away from metal preserves the optimal function of this method of antenna feedpoint current balance and isolation. This mechanical requirement is simple and practical with DX Engineering Bead Choke Standoff Kits.
