LW-40-DX HF 160 -6m Multiband
Long Wire Antenna / Aerial

MCR COMMUNICATIONS LW-40-DX Long wire Antenna

The LW-40-DX are end fed long wire aerials. They all incorporate a 9:1 UNUN at the feed point enabling them to be fed directly with 50 Ohm coaxial cable.
 
I have also fitted a earthing tag and eyelet to the box there is no requirement to to fit anything to this but if you like to earth or fit a counterpoise please do so.

The 9:1 UNUN also removes static noise and provides a DC path to earth. All are able to handle up to 400W RF (full UK limit )

LW-40-DX is 40m in length, this will work on all bands from 160m - 6m via an ATU. Big performance from a small foot print.

These antennas give excellent results where space is at a premium. However, please note that due to the varying impedance found on any long wire antenna,

the built in ATU in your average transceiver will not be able to cope with all bands.

For full band coverage you will need an external ATU or possible some form of capacitive loading system. This can be a simple L or T match.

The LW-40-DX comes fully assembled and ready to go.

Also the poly weave wire will not kink and is extremely strong.

The box is fully weather proof so it will be ok for outside use.

As with all or long wire antennas we fit an earthing terminal on the box so you can earth the antenna if you req but you don't have to to.
