Diex Antennas Single-Band Shortened Rigid Rotatable Dipoles provide coil-shortened specialized coverage of a single HF band that can complement band coverage of existing antennas. Crafted with precision in Brazil using quality materials, these aluminum tubing antennas are designed to withstand tough environments assuring long-lasting, exceptional performance. They are packed partially assembled, saving valuable time and effort. Typically mounted on a rotatable mast, these unique single-band HF antennas provide high-band directionality depending upon installed height above ground. Given the nature of coil-shortened low-band antennas with limited SWR bandwidth, these antennas feature the flexibility of physical adjustment to set the lowest SWR to a specific frequency. Diex Antennas Single-Band Shortened Rigid Rotatable Dipoles power handling is 300W PEP SSB and 100W maximum for digital modes for the 20, 30 and 60M models, 1000W PEP for 80M and 1500W PEP for 40M, which is further limited if using an antenna tuner.

NOTE: Diex Antennas recommends that HF antennas should be mounted on a tower at a minimum height of 33 to 50 ft. (10 - 15 meters) above ground level and must be installed in the clear, away from power lines, trees, buildings or other towers and antennas.
