54 Stealth Antenna Wire When you want your antenna wire to go unnoticed by the watchful eyes of HOA off icers, Consolidated Wire Stealth Antenna Wire makes a great choice to build center-supported HF stealth dipoles, inverted-Vs, or modest-length end-fed wire antennas. It features tough, black UV-resistant PVC insulation that stands up to hard conditions but blends into its surroundings. Even in freezing temperatures, it remains flexible. The insulation is UL-1007-rated for its excellent resistance to oils, acids, and chemicals. Constructed from lightweight 24 AWG stranded tinned copper that ensures easy rollout, the wire is available in spools of 100, 200, and 500 feet.

The kits feature the new EZ-BUILD™ Center-T insulator and end insulators. The insulators’ patented design features a serpentine wire grip for insulated DX Engineering Antenna Wire and DX Engineering’s high strength, high-power 300 Ω ladder line. The serpentine wire connection grip is strong enough to support the antenna wires without looping or wrapping the wire ends. This allows fast and easy field antenna length adjustments without soldering. The insulators are made of a lightweight, high strength, UV-protected material. The center-T insulator is designed to serve as a feedpoint and strain relief for antennas made with either wire or ladder line, which may be fed with either ladder line or coaxial cable. The center-T insulator can be the main support point for the antenna feedpoint by using the top center hole to attach a support rope. DXE-UWA-KIT also serves as the mounting and support point for any DX Engineering Balun. The DXE-UWA8X-KIT and DXE-UWA213-KIT kits include a new strain relief bracket and P-clamps with neoprene cushions that grip the coaxial cable without deforming it, taking the weight of the hanging cable off of the connector. Each kit also includes crimp-on ring terminals for ladder line and antenna wire, and connection hardware.

But for those instances when you want your installations to stand out for safety reasons, such as on Field Day, DX Engineering has a solution—High Visibility Antenna Wire available in 150, 250, and 500 foot spools. Made from premium stranded copper 14 AWG, these PVC-insulated, “Hi-Viz” wires come in bright fluorescent green, pink and yellow to alert curious onlookers, help hams work more eff iciently in the field on their antenna projects, and serve as a warning in areas where children may be nearby. The relaxed, PVC insulation rolls out easily, unlike coated electrical wire which coils and kinks.
