Elecraft W2 Wattmeters
Elecraft W2 Wattmeters are versatile, auto-ranging power and SWR meters with simultaneous, fast response dual bar graph LEDs. Keep track of transmitter, amplifier, and antenna performance with this compact and attractive display that will fit just about anywhere in the shack. It requires only 10-14 Vdc and sensor cable connections. The W2 features two sensor inputs, an over-range alarm, a fully isolated amplifier keying cutout relay and amp keying control. PC remote connectivity is supported with the included USB cable. Read both power and SWR with higher accuracy, as well as set and check alarms, turn the LEDs off, and use for remote operations, all via computer. Included with the Elecraft W2 is one remote RF power sensor, for 1- 54 MHz or 144-450 MHz, which can be placed near the transceiver or amplifier output, minimizing coax cable length. Two sensors can be connected to the W2 to monitor different transmitters or amplifiers, switch-selected from the front panel. Also known as Directional Couplers, sensors have standard SO-239 connectors (UHF female) and connect to the display with standard CAT5 cables, also included. Accommodated by the second sensor input, additional sensors are available separately for a secondary radio, amplifier or alternative frequency coverage. DX Engineering stocks all six versions of the Elecraft W2, three as factory-assembled and tested units, and three as no-solder, easy-build kit units. All versions include one remote power sensor. Choose from the 1-54 MHz, 200W version or the 144-450 MHz, 200W version, both with 2/20/200 watt ranges; or the 1 -54 MHz, 2kW version for 20/200/2000 watt ranges. Offering accurate and efficient SWR and power metering for in-shack and remote operations, Elecraft W2 Wattmeters are an excellent choice. Order yours today from DX Engineering.

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 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!

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.
