DX Engineering MBVE-5A Series SAF-T-TILT™ HF Multi-Band Vertical Antennas
DX Engineering MBVE-5A Series SAF-T-TILT™ HF Multi-Band Vertical Antennas are 43 ft. tall, high performance, 160 through 10 meter vertical antennas - designed from the ground up to offer ease of use, reliability and performance! New design and materials technology are used throughout. The patented* and massive SAF-T-TILT™ 3/8 in. thick rugged aluminum base allows easy, safe tilt action without the unsafe removal of mounting hardware -- as with some competitors' antennas! Now - using our ground-mounted vertical, you'll work DX as you never could with a low horizontal-dipole antenna! DX Engineering MBVE-5A Series SAF-T-TILT™ HF Multi-Band Vertical Antennas require a special DX Engineering DXE-UN-43 UNUN with 150 ft. of RG-213 coax feed and your wide-range tuner - OR a automatic tuner at the base of the antenna without the UNUN.. These MBVE-5A verticals feature: * High strength Delrin® thermoplastic insulator that won't crack, splinter, peel or fail from exposure * Rugged structural grade type 6063-T832 drawn aluminum tubing radiator - the best alloy for high-strength, long-lasting antenna applications * New, massive, patented* SAF-T-TILT™ base allows safe raising and lowering of antenna without removal of fastening hardware * The fast taper antenna element provides the lowest wind resistance * Free-standing to 92 mph wind speeds * All Stainless Steel hardware - very durable and attractive MBVE-5A verticals include the antenna element, mounting plate with insulator, exclusive Patent Pending SAF-T-TILT™ Base, stainless steel hardware and clamps. Like any HF vertical, MBVE-5A verticals require a good ground radial system. 32 radials, 65 feet long are recommended. Fewer or shorter radials will work, but with some diminished results. For proper installation, additional materials are needed, but not supplied. You will need: * Mounting pipe--steel pipe that has 2.0 in. O.D. with 0.25 in. wall thickness, 4 ft. long -- standard 1-1/2 in. galvanized water pipe (with its 1.9 in. OD) is fine * Quick-Set or other concrete for mounting pipe installation * Radial wire and wire lugs--must use 14-gauge, stranded copper wire with PVC insulation. A minimum of 20 radials, each 32 feet long, should be used. * Penetrox A -- to ensure good connection between aluminum hardware and in-between aluminum tubing sections * Anti-seize compound, which should be used on the threads of all the stainless steel hardware to prevent galling Consider these new, cost-effective DX Engineering MBVE-5A Series SAF-T-TILT™ HF Multi-Band Vertical Antennas and packages now available for your application: -- DXE-MBVE-5A 43 Ft. Antenna only -- DXE-MBVE-5A-4P Antenna Package with Radial Plate -- DXE-MBVE-5A-4UP Antenna Package with UN-43 UNUN -- DXE-MBVE-5A-4UPR Antenna Package with Radial Plate and UNUN Packages with Radial Plates include two extra hardware kits for a total of 60 possible radial wire connections.

DX Engineering Tilt Base Antenna Mounting Systems
The patented* DX Engineering Tilt Base Antenna Mounting Systems enable an operator to raise or lower an antenna in seconds, while leaving the base of the antenna securely attached to the mounting plate and post. DX Engineering Tilt Bases make it easy to tune your vertical, repair, or simply lower your antenna to a safe horizontal position long before bad weather hits. One person can install, raise and lower, and service their vertical antenna with our stainless steel Tilt Base; just walk it up or down. The Tilt Base prevents potential accidents when climbing a step ladder to tune the antenna, especially on soft ground. This is an essential tool that has helped countless hams eliminate the possibility of personal injury and damage to their ground-mounted vertical antenna. There is no need to remove brackets from the support posts and you will never again have to lift the entire weight of the antenna in order to tilt it down or tilt it up. Nearly two decades of customer comments about DX Engineering Tilt Bases (and the Radial Plate) have included "it's a work of mechanical art" and another exclaimed "...it's so gorgeous I don't want to mount it outside, I want to hang it on the wall!" Year after year, users are thankful for the amazing ease of the Lift, Slide and Tilt action of this antenna mount for making antenna adjustments simple. Recently, DX Engineering customer Michael, KO4VVH, said "I wondered why this bracket had a cost over $60, but when it arrived today I was blown away. Heavy duty doesn't do this beast justice. Heavy plate stainless steel and it is one of the best mounts I've ever owned. It's big and heavy... Ultra heavy duty. I will mount it up to my Hustler 5BTV HF antenna so I can drop it to ground level for maintenance, adjustments and SWR tweaks. Thank you!" Precision-cut from 3/16 in. 304 stainless steel, these Tilt Base Antenna Mounts are virtually indestructible. They conveniently mount to the same ground pipe or tubing that you use for the antenna and Radial Plate. You could use lag screws or carriage bolts to mount the Tilt Base and the Radial Plate to a wood post, but typically they are securely mounted to a 2 in. max. OD pipe using optional SSVC-2P saddle clamps, displayed in "Required Parts". There are five versions of the DX Engineering Tilt Base Antenna Mounting Systems kit designed for a variety of HF antenna types: DXE-TB-3P: Specifically designed with included stainless steel hardware to mate with the antenna mounting bracket of the Hustler 4, 5 or 6 BTV vertical antennas. DXE-TB-4P: This Tilt Base model provides a mounting plate and clamps for tilting a customer supplied antenna support mast up to 1.75 in. OD and 10 ft. tall, for mounting elevated no-radial vertical antennas that weigh less than or equal to 20 pounds, and have a height of no more than 28 ft. The Vertical antennas and mast assemblies must be adequately guyed. Precautions must be taken when raising or lowering to avoid undue lateral stress on the tilt mechanism. The TB-4P is the tilt option for legacy DX Engineering vertical antenna models DXE-30VE-1, DXE-40-VE-1 and DXE-40VA-1. See the DXE-TB-7P below for the replacement COM-30VA and COM-40VA Monoband Vertical Antennas. DXE-TB-6P: Is specifically designed to mate to the antenna mounting bracket of the Hy-Gain AV-14AVQ (HGN-AV-14AVQ). This special tilt base mounting system includes stainless steel hardware that allows the AV-14AVQ to be closer to ground level for maximum performance. DXE-TB-7P: Is specifically designed to mate to the COMTEK 30 Meter (COM-30VA) and 40 Meter (COM-40VA) Vertical Antennas. DXE-TB-8P: Is specifically designed to mate to the COMTEK 20 Meter Vertical Antennas (COM-20VA) which may be tuned to resonate on one band, 20, 17, 15, 12, or 10 meters.

DX Engineering Vertical Antenna Guying Kits
Some vertical antenna manufacturers indicate that their antennas do not need guying. During times of high winds or ice loading, however, some of these vertical antennas may sustain damage or fail altogether. With the small amount of effort needed to install one of these DX Engineering Vertical Antenna Guying Kits, the risk hardly seems worth taking. They feature a 4-point guying scheme that provides the best mechanical advantage to prevent wind stress, regardless of direction. The guying is intended for stability only and should never be depended on for primary support. DX Engineering Vertical Antenna Guying Kits are especially recommended for use with DX Engineering tilt bases, because just one of the guy ropes has to be loosened when you tilt the vertical down. The remaining guys help to stabilize the vertical in three directions when being raised. These kits have been designed to be used with ground-mounted quarter-wavelength vertical antennas, such as DX Engineering monoband and multiband verticals and the Hustler 4, 5, and 6-BTV models. Using the DX Engineering vertical antenna guying kits, you can install four guy ropes approximately halfway up the vertical antenna system to ground level and angled at approximately 45 degrees. Guying should be tightened just enough to permit the antenna to swing a few inches. The ends of the ropes are tied to the earth anchors that are screwed into the ground at about the same angle as the ropes. Tie the other ends of the ropes to the vertical antenna just above one of the antenna element clamps or traps (a guying ring is not required). Note: Whenever the DX Engineering "Documentation" tab is available, please look at the associated files for additional product information. The DX Engineering Vertical Antenna Guying Kits are available in different lengths to fit your varying vertical antenna needs.
