Off Center Fed Vertical Dipole Antenna Design
The GigaParts DX Flagpole Antenna is an off center fed dipole. The feed line routes into the lower half of the dipole up to the feed point. Routing the feed internally minimizes coupling of the feedline with the antenna. As it is a dipole, no ground radials are needed. The off-center fed dipole works well with most popular tuners to provide a good match across the most active HF amateur bands, and please note that the remote tuner must be placed at the base of the antenna for optimal performance.
Premium Quality Materials
The GigaParts DX Flagpole Antenna has been rigorously mechanically engineered for long-term durability in tough weather. We strive to use the best materials available including:
· DOM (Drawn Over Mandrel) 6063-T832 aluminum tubing for the flagpole antenna series, having a yield strength exceeding 35,000 PSI. Drawn tubing has very tight tolerances enabling the precise fitting adjacent of telescoping tubes for easy manufacturing and assembly.
· Fasteners are 304 stainless steel in common Imperial thread sizes such ¼-20. Replacement hardware will usually be conveniently available at your local hardware store.
· Bolts are secured with stainless steel nylon-insert lock nuts.
· Each antenna kit comes with a quantity of Dow Corning High Vacuum Grease for preparing joints and bolt threads for long-term reliability and ease of maintenance.
