DX Engineering Reversible Beverage Antenna System Combos allow two Beverage antennas to be switched to receive in opposite directions while sharing the same physical space. These exciting new reversible Beverage combos include DX Engineering's superb receive preamp!
Dramatically improved weak signal results can be achieved on MW, BCB, 160, 80 and 40 meter bands and shortwave bands with receive-only Beverage wire antennas that are typically 350 to 800 feet long, depending upon the lowest band of interest.

DX Engineering Reversible Beverage System Combos are immune to the strong signal overload and core saturation common in multi-transmitter contesting environments. Reversible Beverages have two antenna F connectors; one "Away" port for the default end-fire receiving pattern off the end of the wire, and one "Toward" port for the opposite direction. Applying a negative 10 to 18 V DC to the feedline switches the system between the two antenna ports for reception in opposite directions.
You can build a 4-direction receive antenna system with two reversible Beverage systems and one DX Engineering RLS-2 Two-Port Receiving Switch that also requires only one feedline! The optional DX Engineering Feedline Voltage Coupler, model DXE-FVC-1 is highly recommended to provide all of the required feedline voltage injection. Plus, the optional DXE-EC-4 BCD Control Console completes the system for four-direction switching right in the shack.
These RBS systems will work with any 300-600 ohm 2-wire line. For best low-loss low-noise results, use DX Engineering flooded or quad-shielded 75-ohm coax; with our F-type compression connectors to ensure a weatherproof installation.
DX Engineering RPA-1 Receive Preamplifiers use RCA-type phono jacks and CATV Type-F female connectors for the input and output connections to prevent accidental connection to transmitting devices. RPA-1 Receive Preamplifiers feature a built-in relay that automatically bypasses the preamplifier circuit when DC power is removed. These high performance devices must be powered with a well filtered and regulated DC power supply and will offer maximum performance at 12 to 18 V DC input.
