DX Engineering RTR-2 Modular Receive-Transmit Interfaces
DX Engineering RTR-2 Modular Receive-Transmit Interfaces provide the easiest and safest method for connecting a dedicated receive antenna to an HF transceiver that does not have a separate receive antenna input. Placed inline with the transceiver's antenna connector, the RTR-2 does the job of a 200 watt T/R relay using the amplifier keying line for failsafe protection, so your transmitted energy cannot go to the receive antenna. Three internal Plug-in Module option slots provide added features and protection: * DXE-RPA-2-PM Receive Preamplifier Plug-in Module * DXE-TRI-PM Transmit Receive Interrupter Plug-In Module * DXE-IT-PM 75 to 50 ohm Impedance Transformer Plug-in Module DX Engineering RTR-2 Modular Receive-Transmit Interfaces allow the standard transceiver owner to enjoy the advantages of separate receive antennas. For the unswitched receive antenna (RX ANT) port on expensive transceivers, the RTR-2 interface also adds inexpensive failsafe protection. The receive antenna line can be opened or grounded with the optional DXE-TRI-PM Interrupter plug-in module. The RTR-2 is a very useful device for many applications, including: * Connection of external receiving antennas to transceivers lacking external antenna ports * T-R antenna switch for older equipment using separate transmitters and receivers * Interfacing antennas to older phasing or noise cancelling systems * Addition of a switchable receive preamplifier to any transceiver or transmitter and receiver combination * Excellent failsafe receiver protection for close-spaced transmit and receive antennas, without performance degradation of diode circuits of other devices. RTR-2 units feature a unique, failsafe connection method that prevents the hot switching and timing errors that are common on other transmit/receive relays. RTR-2 interfaces switch fast enough for partial break-in CW operation. There are many simple applications for the new RTR-2 and now internal modules can add dramatically improved reception of those really weak signals on the crowded HF bands! DX Engineering RTR-2 Modular Receive-Transmit Interfaces enable operators to enjoy improved reception with any low noise receiving antenna system. This shielded enclosure relay system provides a safe method of connecting a receive antenna, such as a Beverage, Active Receive system, or other receiving accessories to your radio. Major features that make the DX Engineering RTR-2 Receive Antenna Interfaces your best choice for a receive T/R system device: * New Status Indicating Color-changing LEDs * Three internal slots for new DX Engineering modules * New Key Line Out connector for Amplifier * New internal jumper for placing DC on the Receive Antenna feedline for Active or Loop receive antennas * Attractive and heavy stainless steel enclosure * 200 watts RF switching capability * Supports CW partial break-in * Main transmit antenna connector is SO-239 (UHF female) * Radio RF connector is SO-239 (UHF female) * Receive antenna input is 75 ohm F connector * Receive outputs are standard 75 ohm Type F connectors * Inputs are 50 ohm BNC or 75 ohm F (Optional transformer module available) * Safe switching--transmit antenna is always connected to transceiver on power-off * Hot switching lockout--disables receive antenna during transmit mode (Optional DXE-TRI-PM can be set to short the RX ANT line) * Versatile--allows inclusion of Optional RF preamplifiers and other plug-in modules * Simple 13.8 Vdc input for all operations An indispensable accessory for the DX enthusiast and useful for any Amateur's shack, DX Engineering RTR-2 Modular Receive-Transmit Interfaces can help you expand and improve your station's antenna connections and the protection of your equipment.

DX Engineering Reversible Beverage Systems
DX Engineering Reversible Beverage Systems basically allow two Beverage antennas to be switched to receive in opposite directions while sharing the same physical space. DXE-RBSA-1P Reversible Beverage Systems antennas provide two opposite "end-fire" directional patterns with excellent front-to-rear directivity and superior signal-to-noise ratio as compared to transmitting antennas. Dramatically improved long distance weak signal results may be achieved on MW and the 160, 80 and 40 meter bands, including shortwave bands, with receive-only Beverage antennas using wires that are typically only 350 to 800 feet long, depending upon the band of interest. The two-direction DXE-RBSA-1P Reversible Beverage Systems offer a space and installation advantage because two opposite single-wire Beverage antennas would require twice the length. DX Engineering Reversible Beverage Systems are immune to the strong signal overload and core saturation common in multi-transmitter contesting environments and are used by winning contest stations and low-band DXers around the world. These Reversible Beverage antennas have two "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. The standard configuration of these systems has the "Toward" port terminated (75-ohm termination included), so both antennas share a common feedline. Applying a negative 10 to 18V DC to the feedline switches the system between the two antenna ports for reception in opposite directions. For simultaneous reception from opposing directions, each of the two feedlines can be run to separate receivers, with the termination load not used. You can build a 4-direction receive antenna system with two DXE-RBSA-1P 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. DX Engineering Reversible Beverage Systems are optimized to use our optional 450 ohm ladder line for the antenna element. We strongly recommend using that type of "window line" because the consistent spacing of the antenna wires will produce the best operational results. However, the RBS will work with any 300-600 ohm 2-wire line. For best feed line results, DX Engineering highly recommends using our high quality flooded or quad-shielded 75-ohm coax with F-type compression connectors to ensure a weatherproof installation. Additional features include: * Broad operating range, 0.2 to 30 MHz * Fully isolated grounds prevent common-made noise and unwanted signals * 75 ohm design enables the use of high quality, low cost cable and connectors * RF shielded housing used for isolation and improved life * Directional Switching Voltage: nominal 12V AC or negative 12V DC, feedline injected * Directional Switching Current: less than 80 mA * Antenna impedance: 300-600 ohm (450 ohm recommended) * Feedline impedance: 50-75 ohm (75 ohm recommended) * RBSA-1FP Feed Point unit dimensions: 5.5 in. width x 3.5 in. depth x 1.5 in. height * RBS-1RT Reflection Transformer unit dimensions: 2.125 in. width x 2.125 in. depth x 1.125 in. height Note: Whenever the DX Engineering "Documentation" tab is available, please look at the associated files for additional product information. DX Engineering Reversible Beverage Systems offer the best DX reception and flexibility in high performance two-direction wire Beverage receive antennas. Get yours set up soon!
