[600MRG] "The Lowdown Amateur Radio Antenna for 630 Meters Model 630.PD"

[John Langridge]

Good morning,

Jamie, N2VJ, reported this morning on SLACK that a US-based company is
producing a portable, turnkey 630-meter vertical antenna system.
Originally developed for BC medium wave AM as an emergency continuity
system, this model has been modified for 472-479 kHz.  You can see the
specs here:  https://theradiosource.com/products/antenna-630pd.htm

Jamie indicated that the company is probably testing the market and
the price may be somewhere in the $890 USD range.  While that may seem
pricey to some, there are a lot of people out there still waiting for
a turnkey option and engineering and materials are expensive these
days.  Yes you can build this stuff for a LOT cheaper but there are a
lot of hams today that can't or won't so here is an option to fill the
void.

Have a look and show some interest as doing so often drives product
development and innovation.

Jamie explicitly noted that he is not endorsing this product and he
has no financial interest.

73,
