55 Antennas: Portable, Band Pass Filters STEALTH Loop Antenna From the loop antenna experts at Italy’s Ciro Mazzoni comes the low- profile STEALTH Loop Antenna by I3VHF. Premiered at Dayton Hamvention 2018 and now available from DX Engineering, the 6.6-29.8 MHz continuous coverage STEALTH Loop measures only 54" x 19.6" x 10.2", making it ideal for keeping out of sight while letting you work the 40 to 10 meter bands. Made from strong, powdercoated aluminum alloy, the antenna features a typical SWR of 1.3:1; 6dB front to back ratio; 25dB front to side ratio; 50 Ω input impedance; and 125 watt power rating. It includes the ATU 2.0 Automatic Tuning Unit to resonate the loop throughout its wide frequency range. Weighing 15.4 pounds (without mounting brackets), the STEALTH Loop is an antenna built for high performance, without drawing the attention of your neighbors or HOA.

Cables for connecting a transceiver and the ATU 2.0 are required. MZZ-SS232-USB Serial Switch for Ciro Mazzoni Loops .................................. $499.99 DXE-TW-4040-P DXE-TW-2010-P TransWorld Antenna Packages If you enjoy portable HF operation, but don’t enjoy lugging around a massive antenna, you should check out the TransWorld Antenna line. These antennas are small and portable, yet boast exceptional performance and durability. TransWorld Antennas are DX Engineering products, so they’re built to the same precision standards that made TransWorld Antenna a household name for HF enthusiasts. The DX Engineering TransWorld Antenna is essentially a basic structure consisting of top, bottom and tee sections with interchangeable Array Box Center Sections that you can purchase separately for the other bands you want. There are a ton of options; to make selecting the right antenna setup easier, we’ve created these handy packages. 5-Band Explorer This combo delivers excellent 20, 17, 15, 12 and 10 meter coverage with manual bandswitching. It includes a portable Quadrastand, basic antenna structure, and a handy travel bag. DXE-TW-2010L-P 5-Band Explorer Package .................................................$888.95 5-Band Adventurer Similar to the 5-Band Explorer with the addition of automatic bandswitching. The travel bag is available separately. DXE-TW-2010-P 5-Band Adventurer Package ........................................ $1,054.96 Band-Specific Solo Explorer This monoband antenna system gives you an impressive presence on the 40 meter band. It’s an extremely portable package, and comes with Quadrastand and basic antenna structure components.

DXE-TW-4040-P 40 Meter Solo Explorer Package ......................................$748.96 5-Band Globetrotter Though it’s a great portable antenna, the TransWorld Antenna is actually perfect for stealthy home installation too, when paired with the TransWorld Permanent Mounting Pole that’s included in this package. Like the 5-Band Adventurer, the Globetrotter features 20-10M coverage with automatic bandswitching. DXE-TW-2010P-P 5-Band Globetrotter ................................$956.96 Band Switch Box Cover DXE-TW-COVER Band Switch Box Cover for TW-2010/2010L/3030/4040 .........................$29.99 AM Broadcast Band Brick-Wall High Pass Filter Live near a commercial AM station? Here’s an ef ective way to combat its inference. Below 1.7 MHz, the filter hits unwanted signals with over 40 dB of attenuation. And it’s virtually unnoticeable on the HF bands—there’s less than 0.85 dB of loss with a SWR under 1.2:1. The filter is optimized for 50 Ω and installs between your radio and antenna (or amplifier/tuner). It handles 200 watts. DLW-FL1718 AM Broadcast Band Brick-Wall High Pass Filter ........................... $195.00 SOTABeams Wire Antenna Kits Band Hopper Multi-Band Portable Dipole Antennas These lightweight, pre-assembled, resonant multi-band dipole antennas are designed for the lightweight portable specialist. With a high-ef iciency, full-size, half-wave dipole on each band, operators can receive and transmit strong signals anywhere they go. The kit comes with RG174 feedline; BNC connector; ferrite core, current balun; three wire winders; tent stakes; 33' of back guy rope; and storage bag. These antennas are rated to 125W. Quick band selection is made possible with provided alligator clip jumpers.

It comes with two wire winders, two aluminum tent stakes, three insulators, two cable ties, 4mm to BNC adapter, and nylon carrying bag. Wire elements are made of high-quality PVC-insulated stranded wire. Requires the use of an antenna tuner, not included. SBM-SPRINGERMIDI 60/40/30/20/17/15/12/10M Midi HF Antenna, 42' .......$43.99 SBM-BANDHOPPER4 HF Transmit Band Pass Filters and Multiplexers Give your station the same high-quality band pass filters, diplexers, and triplexers used by top multi-multi contest stations and successful Field Day operations. Highly respected HF transmit band pass filters by Pavel, VA6AM, provide a dramatically lowered noise floor for enhanced single-band, weak-signal reception. The compact units (3" H x 6" W x 3" D) deliver the isolation needed to eliminate image and harmonic RF interference issues for dedicated monoband operations in multi-radio environments. The 150W PEP filters (Third Order Cauer for 80/40/20/15; Third Order Chebyshev for 160/10M) allow multiple transceivers to be operated on dif erent bands simultaneously on the same antenna (with a required multiplexer below). Built into durable aluminum enclosures and supplied with SO-239 connectors, these filters boast 60 dB of out-of-band suppression, typical insertion loss of less than 0.25 dB, and return loss of less than 26 dB, equivalent to SWR under 1.1:1.
