DX Engineering Low Power Portable Dipole and Winder Kits supply the parts for a fun DIY build of a lightweight resonant HF antenna. They are designed for fast portable operations on 40 meters or higher frequency bands. Making your own Single Band or Dual Band Linked Dipole is easy and fun, especially because once they are built, they are designed to repeatedly and quickly unwind, install, make contacts on the air, wind up and go! Typically set up as an Inverted Vee, DXE-LPB1-DWHF series portable dipoles are a perfect match for DX Engineering Nomad Portable Telescopic Masts (sold separately). Great for POTA, SOTA and JOTA, here are some of the best, low-cost DIY antenna kits available for 'on-the-go' amateur radio.

Here's what comes in the lightweight DX Engineering Low Power Portable Dipole and Winder Kits:
• Center Insulator with a 1:1 Low Power Balun, 50-ohm (max. RF power 250 watts PEP SSB, 100 watts CW or Digital); BNC female right-angle connector pre-installed.
• 24 Gauge Stranded Hi-Visibility Yellow Insulated Wire; 80 feet, Two 40 ft. sections.
• 4 Link Insulators support the wire and may be used to "break up" the dipole into multiband sections.
• 4 Alligator Clips are used two per link, one link per side makes a two band dipole.
• 4 Clip Hooks for user supplied rope.
• 1 Snap Hook to support the Center Insulator Balun on a Nomad Portable Mast
• 3 easy to hold DX Engineering Red Winders for the portable dipole wires and user supplied coaxial cable; Winders have notches and holes for a variety of uses.
• One bag of Bongo Ties (available in variety of colors) to secure wires onto Winders.

Resonant, low-SWR operation is accommodated on two bands by adding a pair of Band Links. Changing bands is done easily by linking or unlinking pairs of clips on opposite sides of the dipole. With the center of the antenna at 15 to 20 ft. high, and the ends of the dipole a few feet above the ground, the links are easy to reach. Additional band link kits (DXE-LINK-KIT) are available separately to create multiband linked dipole antennas. Each optional Link Kit has the parts for one additional band and contains 2 insulators, 4 'gator clips and 4 clip covers.

The Center Insulator 1:1 Balun feedpoint BNC is easily connected with super thin DXE-174VDB or special adapter DXE-8XVDXB DX Engineering Hi-Visibility Orange Coaxial Cables, available in various lengths.
