HF Antenna related items For Sale -- Vertical antennas,
SWR Bridges, Legal Limit Balun, Low Pass TVI Filters,
Connectors and more
Gap "Titan DX" HF Vertical Antenna:
The Titan is an 8 Band Multiband DX Antenna. It covers 80
thru 10 meters, including the WARC bands. It covers the
entire band on 40 thru 10, and about 100 KHz on 75/80 meters.
It is about 25 feet tall, and includes a counterpoise, so
that no radials are required.
One of the primary virtues of the Titan is the GAP center
feed. By elevating the feed the earth loss is dramatically
decreased, which means the RF is going out to make the contact
instead of into the ground to warm the earth. Reducing the
earth loss eliminates the need for a radial system. The
Titan requires NO RADIALS.
This particular antenna is in extremely nice shape with no
corrosion. Most of the aluminum is still shiny.
These sell new for about 400ドル. This one is close to new,
with paper work for 250ドル. Pick up only near Ocala FL, just
off of I-75.
Hustler 4BTV "Base station" HF vertical antenna
The 4BTV covers 10, 15, 20, and 40 meters.
It can also cover 75/80 meters by using an RM-80 S resonator.
This one is in extremely good shape. It actually still shines!
No corrosion evident. Penetrox was used on the original
assembly, so it comes apart easily.
Paper work is included. but connection points are well marked
for easy reconstruction. 120ドル
I would prefer pickup near Ocala, Florida, just off of I-75.
It will easily fit inside a minivan, or it can be broken down
more to go inside a car. It is possible to ship it, but the
cost is high due to it being oversize. Obviously, shipping
is not included in the price.
SWR Bridge / Field Strength Meter:
Royce 2-100 Single Meter SWR Bridge / Field Strength Meter
With SO-239 connectors, it covers from 3 to 150 MHz,
covering HF, 6 meters, and 2 meters, so is ideal for the new
rigs with 6 meters and 2 meters in them.
This one works fine, and looks extremely nice. I do not see
any scratches on it, but it does have a previous owners name
on it. In its original box with original instructions. 32ドル
Dual Meter SWR Bridges:
Both of these feature two separate meters -- one for reading
forward power and another for reading SWR. This permits one
to easily monitor both the power going out, and the SWR on
the antenna. They were made in Japan, and labeled with various
names, including Swan, Siltronix, and Quement. Both have SO-239
connectors on each end, and work fine.
Both will work on HF, and VHF, covering 3 to 150 MHz, so are
ideal for the new rigs that include 6 and 2 meters.
Quement SWB-2
No box for this one, but it works fine and looks great.
With paper work for 40ドル.
Siltronix SWR-2
This meter functions fine, but the meter lens of the meter that
reads SWR has a crack on the very right edge of it. Strictly
cosmetic. 25ドル
Heavy Duty Legal Limit Plus Balun:
HyGain BN-4000 Balun
A balun is used to convert an unbalanced load such as coax
to a balanced load such as a beam or dipole. It will also
help reduce radiation from the coax feedline, that could
reduce TVI and other interference.
The BN-4000 D is a 1 to 1 ratio broadband 50 Ohm current balun,
and is potted to seal out moisture. It is rated at 4000 Watts
for increased power handling capabilities. Frequency range
is 1 MHz to 54 MHz. It has stainless steel hardware and comes
with a SO-239 connector.
This particular unit works fine and looks really great. It
would appear that it has not been used. All connections are
clean and shiny; the case also shines.
Paper work is included for 80ドル.
Low Pass TVI Filters:
A low pass TVI filter is added to the transmitter to reduce
harmonic interference. All have SO-239 connectors and include
paper work.
Drake TV-3300
This is a modern low pass filter has been optimized to have
more attenuation in the 40 MHz region, where many TVs have
their IF. It is good for 1000 Watts "average" according to
the manual, and has over 80 db attenuation at 41 MHz.
This one looks great. 30ドル
B & W FL-10/1500
This filter cuts off just above 10 meters, and handles 1500
Watts. It is the latest model B&W filter.
It looks very close to new. 40ドル.

a PL-259 to be attached. (BNC male to UHF female) 5ドル
UHF Male (PL-259) to BNC female (opposite of above) 5ドル
UHF double female "Barrel connector" (two SO-239 together) 3ドル
UHF "T" connector with two female (SO-239) and one male
(PL-259) connection - 5ドル
