Par EndFedz® Antennas

Par EndFedz® Antennas are End Fed Half Wave (EFHW) antennas with the match box coax connection at the end of the wire, for convenient and quick stealth portable operations. These single-band and multi-band antennas can be mounted horizontally, vertically, or as a sloper. No ground plane or counterpoise is needed so portable operation could not be easier. Simply hang the far end from a tree limb or send the wire out a hotel room window or balcony. You can use a telescoping fiberglass mast to get the antenna really high in the air and the supplied end insulators the installation easy. Stealth operation in CC&R and HOA antenna restricted locations is simplified. Their all-black construction makes them difficult to see. Each Par EndFedz® features a UV-resistant black ABS plastic housing with a support rope attachment hole that encloses a matching network to allow the antenna to be fed with standard 50 ohm coaxial cable with a PL-259 (UHF male). All hardware is stainless steel and the SO-239 (UHF female) connector is silver plated and has a PTFE dielectric. The antenna wires are either 18 or 26 AWG stranded Copperweld® with 200 pound breaking strength and a tough, 100% UV stable black polyethylene jacket. One end of the antenna wire has a #10 solder lug making attachment to the matching network feedpoint simple and easily replaceable, if necessary. Standard single and multi-band versions handle 100 or 200 watts and higher power versions handle 300 watts. Lightweight QRP PolyStealth models handle 25 watts and are ideal for portable operation because they are lightweight; the MKII model weighs only 8 ounces and the Trail Friendly model weighs only 3.5 oz. Par EndFedz® Antennas require no counterpoise or extra conductors. The EF-ALLBAND-KW model, about 133 ft. in length, covers eight bands, 80 through 10 meters. The ALLBANDKWJR is 74 ft. in length and operates on five bands, 80-10 meters. The 64 ft. EF-40-10-KW operates on four bands. All three models handle up to 1000 watts SSB/CW and 250 watts AM/Digital Modes. The need for an external tuner may vary based on the antenna model selected and the desired operating band. The manufacturer refers to these antennas as "End-Fed Dipoles" based upon the assertion that a "half-wave radiator is a dipole." This is a variant of the classic definition of a dipole which is a center-fed antenna with two radiating legs running in opposite directions from the feed point. Additional claims about the EFHW state that end feeding a half-wave "can energize the radiator 'nearly' as well as a center-fed." Recent anecdotal measurements indicate that the EFHW radiates about 70% as well as a traditional center-fed dipole. More information is available at each Par EndFedz® model listed below.

Mastrant Antenna Support and Guy Line Ropes

Mastrant Antenna Support and Guy Line Ropes are available in several sizes and strength ratings, perfect for support of wire antennas, vertical antennas and antenna masts, as well as support of Yagi booms and elements. Mastrant ropes are of the highest quality for strength and are UV-protected for extended longevity. MASTRANT-O is a highly reflective rope (bright orange plus braided reflective tape) based on long-term proven Polyester (Dacron) product line. It is designed for maximum visibility in public places such as Field Day and POTA activities. Like all Mastrant ropes, it is UV stable and resistant to all weather conditions. It has low weight, great abrasion resistance, great durability and is nonconductive (no effect whatsoever on your antenna). Moreover, in contrast to ropes made from aramid fibers (Kevlar, Vectran, Technora, Twaron), it has knot strength about 60 %. Mastrant-P and Mastrant-R Ropes are stronger than other synthetic ropes of the same size, made from proven modern polyester. Mastrant-Q is a new rope made from a blend of polyester and polypropylene, designed specifically for guying applications. It offers an excellent performance-to-price ratio and has a knot strength of approximately 60%. It replaces Mastrant-P in diameters of 6 mm (1/4 in.) and larger. Mastrant-S is a similar polyester/polypropylene rope, distinguished by its highly reflective strands for increased visibility. Mastrant-M is their highest strength rope with the Dyneema® DM20 core, a superior synthetic rope offering high performance at an affordable price. Very high strength, negligible elongation, very low weight, and great abrasion resistance are all attributes that make Mastrant-M the best rope for guying. Larger, stronger sizes of Mastrant-M are used in Europe and other parts of the world for tower guying. Durability and safety are of prime concern to ensure that an antenna installation remains fully operational for a long time. Antennas and guy lines are exposed to changing weather conditions, mechanical strain, UV radiation, humidity, and more. These non-conductive synthetic fibers have all the necessary qualities: high strength, negligible stretch but good flexibility, long life, low moisture collection, fast drying, a minimum bending radius adding the ability to tie knots, good UV radiation resistance, weather durability and resistance to acids and alkali. Conversely, steel guying wires are heavy, difficult to work with, and their strength deteriorates with time due to corrosion and general aging. Electrical conductivity of steel guys is an undesirable feature, as they interact with the antennas and adversely modify radiation patterns. Thanks to recent developments in synthetic materials, both amateur and professional users are changing over to non-conductive guys and ropes. Mastrant offers these products for a variety of applications, from thin support lines used for wire antennas and beams, to rope guys for supporting small and portable masts and vertical antennas. When you need quality rope to install, replace, or modify your antenna systems, consider Mastrant Antenna Support and Guy Line Ropes, now available from DX Engineering.

Perfect for portable operations and outdoor activities such as POTA® or SOTA™, this feedpoint kit simplifies setup while delivering reliable performance. The TWIG is rated for 25W SSB, 10W CW, and 5W Digital modes, delivering an SWR of less than 2:1 without an antenna tuner. At its core, the TWIG features a 49:1 transformer that matches the impedance of the user supplied half-wave element wire to 50-ohms, ensuring compatibility with most QRP transceivers. The BNC female connector pairs easily with recommended coax cables, and when the element wire is properly tuned, no external tuner is required—reducing the amount of gear you need to carry. The kit includes a built-in quick connector designed for 24/26 AWG antenna wire, making element installation fast and secure. Two end insulators and clips are also provided, ensuring reliable strain relief and easy attachment of the antenna wire in the field. Installation is quick and straightforward, allowing you to get on the air fast and start making contacts. No additional counterpoise wire is necessary; the coax cable serves that function when installed correctly. For best results, use optional 24/26 AWG wire such as CEW-VIZ24-YEL100, a high-visibility, PVC-insulated stranded copper wire. A typical setup uses a sloper configuration, with the feedpoint about 6–7 feet above ground and the wire sloping upward to 25–30 feet. Recommended coax length is 25–35 feet with BNC connectors and adding an optional DXE-LPFC-BNC Feedline Choke at the transceiver end is suggested. While the antenna supports multiple configurations, wire length will vary based on installation.

DX Engineering Multi-Band Dipole Antennas

DX Engineering Multi-Band Dipole Antennas are designs that are rugged, yet lightweight. Using a tuner, they are usable to 30 MHz and come complete with the wire elements, ladder feedline, center T support, and end mount brackets. These antennas are built using the highest quality components. They use 14 AWG stranded-copper, PVC jacketed elements for flexibility and strength and 100 ft. of 18 AWG 300-ohm 0.88 Velocity Factor ladder lines that are UV-resistant. Stainless steel hardware is included. Often, a 4:1 balun is suggested for multi-band dipoles; however, the best balun to use for this application is a 1:1 ratio. The 1:1 baluns provide better balance, have lower loss, and are more tolerant to load impedance and balance variations than other baluns. A tuner balun is not included in the dipole antenna kits and is available separately. The dipole center T support has pre-drilled holes for the attachment of the wire elements, feedline, and support or messenger lines. The center support top hole is used for the attachment of a "messenger line" that can be strung above the antenna wire and is used to provide support for the antenna wire and feedline. The use of the messenger line, which is strongly recommended but not included, will reduce the stress on the element wires and keep the antenna from stretching over time, which will change its resonant frequency. This line can be thin Synthetic Textile rope available from DX Engineering, which has a high breaking strength. Ideally, it should attach to the same structure used for the dipole, only above it, forming at least a 30 degree angle between the dipole and the messenger line. For further information and to decide the amount of rope you will need, please read the included instructions and check your wire antenna area of construction. Note: Whenever the DX Engineering "Documentation" tab is available, please look at the associated files for additional product information. When you lack the room for more than one antenna or need a multiband antenna for band agility, consider one of these DX Engineering Multi-Band Dipole Antennas as an elegant and economical solution!

EZ-BUILD® kits allow for fast and easy field adjustments of antenna wire length without soldering! The DX Engineering EZ-BUILD® Center-T includes a centered top 3/8 in. hole for the attachment of an antenna support rope, and the End Insulators accept up to 5/16 in. antenna support rope. Our EZ-BUILD® kits simplify the construction of your wire antenna, with wire crimp terminals, stainless steel hardware, and a pre-assembled coax pigtail with connector and adapter that accepts your feedline PL-259 (UHF male) connector. The feedline is secured with the exclusive DX Engineering Coax Strain Relief which features an aluminum bracket, neoprene-cushioned P-clamps, and stainless steel hardware. This method supports the feedline without subjecting the connectors to the strain of the coaxial cable's weight or movement. DX Engineering EZ-BUILD® UWA213 Center-T and End Insulator Kits let you create any type of wire antennas, including single-band, multi-band, multi-frequency, folded dipole, doublet and inverted-V, off-center fed, Windom, Zepp, long wires, rhombic, V Beam, or loop antennas. This UWA213-KIT is the model to use for the construction of an RG-213 or RG-8U coax fed wire antenna that will be operated at high power and high duty cycle modes of operation, such as AM, RTTY, or FM. The UWA8X-KIT will handle low and medium power levels and tolerate low SWR levels. Use the EZ-BUILD® UWA-KIT for building a wire antenna with any DX Engineering Balun or 300 Ohm Ladder Line. DX Engineering EZ-BUILD™ UWA213 Center-T and End Insulator Kits include: -- One center-T insulator featuring an exclusive no-loop, no-solder wire, multiple wire, or 300 ohm ladder line serpentine grip design, which allow for the rapid field adjustment of wire lengths; the center-T includes a centered top hole for attaching support ropes -- Two end insulators featuring the no-loop, no-solder, serpentine grip design -- Two stainless steel wire connection bolts, nuts, and washers. -- Four crimp ring terminals for antenna and ladder line wire connections -- One pre-soldered, weather-sealed and tested coaxial connector and adapter assembly -- One aluminum cable strain relief bracket and mounting hardware -- Two strain relief P-clamps with neoprene cushions sized to grip RG-213 or RG-8U without crushing the coaxial cable -- Additional stainless steel hardware for mounting DX Engineering baluns Note: Whenever the DX Engineering "Documentation" tab is available, please look at the associated files for additional product information. DX Engineering baluns, antenna wire, 300 ohm ladder line, and support rope are all sold separately.

DX Engineering TWIG QRP Off Center Fed Dipole Kits

DX Engineering TWIG QRP Off Center Fed Dipole Kits provide everything needed to build lightweight, low-power (QRP) Off Center Fed Dipole (OCF) antennas around the DXE-TWIG-4-1C QRP Current Balun. Designed for portable operating, these kits make it easy to assemble efficient multiband antennas for outdoor activities such as POTA® and SOTA®, as well as other field and portable operations on the 40 through 10-meter amateur bands. When properly constructed, these antennas are rated for 25 watts SSB, 10 watts CW, and 5 watts digital modes. At the heart of these kits is the included DXE-TWIG-4-1C balun, which features a 4:1 transformer that converts the approximately 200-ohm impedance of an OCF antenna to the desired 50-ohm impedance required by standard coaxial feedlines. A BNC female connector provides compatibility with recommended coaxial cables and most QRP transceivers. When installed correctly and tuned to the desired operating bands, the included 24 AWG PVC-insulated, stranded copper, high-visibility yellow antenna wire typically eliminates the need for an external antenna tuner. This reduces the amount of gear operators need to carry into the field while allowing for quick band changes and improved operating efficiency. For best performance, a coaxial feedline with BNC connectors (sold separately) measuring approximately 25 to 35 feet is recommended. These antennas can be deployed in a variety of configurations, with final wire lengths varying based on the installation method and operating requirements.
