A grounding strap is ideal for grounding a rig, amp, etc. to a copper strip running behind the desk; the strip becomes the central ground point for the equipment. This central ground can be routed away with heavy copper strap to join any other similarly protected branches for single point grounding (SPG) lightning protection. For indoor use.

The stainless steel bracket is supplied with a stainless steel V-bolt and hardware in your choice of two sizes for a solid connection to a tower leg or mast. Each bracket has holes for bulkhead connectors or chassis mount connectors, listed below. The Grounding Bracket is an ideal junction point for the coax pigtails that form the rotor loop to connect to the downleads. The bracket can also be used at the base of the tower to provide a solid grounding point before the coax cable is routed away from the grounded tower. The bracket has serrated teeth to bite through paint and corrosion.

Install Paradan’s Antenna Disconnect Actuator in the coaxial cable that feeds the antenna. When power from your transceiver or station power supply is turned of , it automatically disconnects the antenna from your station and grounds the antenna feedline, reducing the chance of station damage from static-discharge, surges and lightning pulse ef ects. You’ll never again have to worry about remembering to unplug the system. Further safeguards are provided via a gas discharge tube on the antenna coax input which protects the radio from lightning pulse damage while operating. The relays have diode protected coils to eliminate reverse spikes. The actuator’s water-resistant enclosure may be installed in the shack at the output of the transceiver, amplifier or tuner, or outdoors in line with the antenna coaxial cable. The unit handles 1,500 watts of RF from 1.8 to 50 MHz. The PDN-P-ADA-2 model automatically disconnects and isolates any radio equipped with two antenna ports and grounds both antenna SO-239 coaxial connectors. The two radio SO-239 connectors may also be used for two separate transceivers or receivers.

It’s how some of our most useful products come to light. So when active Hams asked us about developing a surge protector to use with their 300 Ω and 450 Ω ladder line fed antennas, we went to work. The result is the DX Engineering Ladder Line Surge Protector, a device that’s ready to be placed in line with your balanced feedline antenna system and connected to a ground rod. Compared to coaxial protectors, the DXE-LLSP uses much larger capacitors, resistors and gas discharge tubes (rated to handle 5 kW) on each leg of the ladder line to of er excellent surge protection capabilities. This protector easily handles over 5,000W of RF power at high SWR, sustains multiple minor surges, and bleeds of static charge collected on the antenna from wind-driven sand, rain and snow. The unit works with 300/450 Ω ladder line and 600 Ω open-wire feeder line. DXE-LLSP Ladder Line Surge Protector .................................................$85.99 Rotator Control Line Protector Protect your control lines using this unit’s eight individually shunt-protected terminals. When the voltage spikes above 82 Vdc in either polarity, the Rotator Control Line Protector automatically shunts the circuit to ground using an MOV for maximum surge protection. The protector is housed in a weatherproof metal enclosure with an integrated mounting stud, which makes it easy to attach to a tower leg or ground rod. Terminal gaskets help prevent any moisture from entering the housing.
