The Standard Hi-Q -4 series antennas are REPLACED with the NEW Hi-Q-4/80 RT MC-1 series of HF Mobile, TAD and NVIS antennas..
ALL physical parameters have remained the same, the Electrical parameters have substantionally improved as all internal components are SILVER PLATED!
The Hi-Q-4/80 RT
Remotely Tunable (Motorized) - 6 thru 80 meters
The Hi-Q-4/80 RT is a motorized,
Remotely Tunable HF Mobile antenna.
This is the MOST efficient motorized tunable HF Mobile antenna built
today. The coil diameter is perfectly chosen and optimized at the 40M
band with only small performance change on 80 and the higher bands.
Dimensions:
Matching may be needed for 40 & 80 meters, using either a shunt coil or other matching device. The loading coil is a sealed unit, no maintenance is required.
Antenna height: 3 feet Recommended whip length: 7 feet 6 inches Loading coil diameter: 4 inches Loading coil length: 9 inches Mast diameter: 1.3 inches with 2 inch motor housing Weight: 7.0 lb. Base impedance: 18 Ohms @ 3.8 MHz
Method of tuning:
- Hi-Q DC Controller or similar controller. ALL Hi-Q-Antennas now have a magnet to count rotations of the motor-output shaft. So, by adding an optional reed switch externally, you get a "pulse per revolution" for the Hi-Q DC Controller or similar controller.
- You may also use a simple DPDT switch to tune the antenna.
Mounting: 3/8-24 bolt, two insulating wafers, supplied.
