Chelegance MC-750 40-6M HF Portable Vertical Antenna

Chelegance MC-750 40-6M HF Portable Vertical Antenna

The MC-750 is a versatile, ground-plane vertical antenna system optimized for portable HF operations. Designed for the operator who needs a reliable station that can be deployed in minutes, the MC-750 offers a full-size 1/4 wavelength radiator for the 20-meter through 6-meter bands, with an integrated loading coil to extend coverage to the 40-meter band.

The system is centered around a 5.6-meter (17-foot) stainless steel telescopic whip that features laser-engraved frequency markings, significantly reducing the time spent on manual tuning. Built for the rigors of field use in POTA (Parks on the Air) and SOTA (Summits on the Air), the MC-750 balances lightweight construction with the durability required for outdoor environments.

Key Technical Features:

• Broad Frequency Agility: Provides native coverage from 7 MHz to 50 MHz. The modular design allows the user to switch between bands by simply adjusting the telescopic sections or adding the high-Q loading coil for 40m operation.
• Precision Tuning: The laser-engraved whip eliminates guesswork, allowing for rapid adjustment to a low SWR (Standing Wave Ratio) across various terrain types.
• Efficient Ground Plane: Includes four 3.5-meter (11.5-foot) radial wires that provide a stable counterpoise, ensuring maximum radiation efficiency and a consistent 50-ohm impedance match.
• Optimized Power Handling: Rated for 100W PEP for SSB voice communications and 50W for high-duty cycle digital modes like FT8, making it a perfect match for standard 100W portable transceivers.
• Compact Transport: The entire kit, including the ground spike, loading coil, and radials, breaks down into a 25-inch (65cm) carry bag, weighing only 4 lbs (1.8 kg).
