Antennas: Receiving RTR-1A Antenna Receive Interface 69 Horizontal Configuration Vertical Configuration If you have a standard transceiver without a separate receive input port; but you want to enjoy the advantages of a separate receive antenna, DX Engineering has the perfect solution. Connect an external receive-only antenna to your transceiver with this interface, or add a TX/RX switch to your older gear, insert a receive preamplifier and add interfacing antennas to phasing or noise cancelling systems.

70 Antennas: Receiving DXE-RFS-SYS-4P Complete Package DX Engineering Receive 8 Circle Packages These packages are built around the DX Engineering Receive 8 Circle Array Controller and the EC-RCA8 Receive Eight Circle Control Console. They are designed to be used with eight identical, symmetrically-spaced vertical elements—active or passive—to provide switching for an eight-direction receiving antenna system. (Passive elements will generally provide you with a monoband receiving system).

Antennas: Receiving Typical Installation for DX Engineering NCC-1 This diagram shows the DX Engineering NCC-1 in a station with a single transceiver that has a separate receive antenna port. The two active receive antennas are shown deployed in the recommended position. The DX Engineering RPA-1 Preamplifier is normally not needed as most of today’s transceivers have built-in preamps to compensate for overall lower signal levels obtained from small receive-only antennas.

Baluns, UNUNs & Chokes 73 Vertical Feedline Current Choke When quarter-wave antennas are constructed over a good radial system, they have a feedpoint impedance of about 36 Ω and currents are equal between the vertical section and the radial system. If the radial system is less than ideal—due to short radials, too-few radials or poor soil conductivity—the antenna system will try to use the feedline shield as part of the radial system. This leads to a loss in the efficiency and a higher take-off angle.

74 Baluns, UNUNs & Chokes Jerry Sevick W2FMI-inspired COMTEK Baluns COMTEK Baluns COMTEK Baluns were inspired by the writings of Jerry Sevick W2FMI, published in his book Understanding, Building and Using Baluns and Ununs. COMTEK baluns are value-engineered to provide maximum performance at minimum cost while providing a superb, efficient match between unbalanced coax and balanced antennas.

Baluns, UNUNs & Chokes 4:1 High Power UNUN for Non-Resonant Vertical Antennas Using non-resonant multi-band antennas? This UNUN helps your antenna system operate at maximum efficiency by minimizing transmission line losses caused by SWR. You can add this UNUN to any 43 foot antenna system; it covers 1.8-30 MHz and can handle 2 kW CW/5 kW SSB. Mounting and feedpoint connection kits are available separately; or you can purchase everything together for a complete installation package.
