*New Auto Tuned Stealth Antenna (ATSA) design concept from DX Engineering
Also great for EMCOMM - just preassemble and deploy in minutes!*
Living in an area where antennas are not allowed? DX Engineering has
designed a complete antenna system that will allow Amateur Radio
Operators living even under the shadow of HOA controlled areas to get on
the air easily. Typically, with even a short 26 foot wire antenna, you
can be on the air on all bands 40M and up – and with only 45 feet of
wire you can be on all bands 80M - 10M! This is due to the patented*
ATSA MatchBoxx™ module which allows use of almost any length wire - no
more "forbidden" lengths as with other end-fed systems.
Most small, physically short antennas exhibit narrow bandwidth -
limiting your operating frequency range on the lower bands to 50 to 100
kHz with acceptable SWR. The SMBA's integral auto tuner always delivers
*the lowest possible SWR at any operating frequency* with no operator
adjustments necessary. Just change bands and the ATSA antenna will
follow you!
The very low profile Remote Tuning Unit [RTU] is easily hidden - even in
small bushes or shrubs - and the only thing that shows is the wire
antenna element which can be very small diameter for a near-zero visual
impact. This is a complete system including the tuner, stainless steel
radial plate, the radial wire, all hardware - and even the antenna wire
and 2 insulators. We supply nearly everything that you will need for a
no-compromise installation that will get you on the air and operating
right under their noses.
Just “plant” it in the bushes with supplied spikes and lay out the
minimum length radials. You can further camouflage the controller with a
plastic boulder or other items available at most landscaping stores!
This system can be used if your shack is on the main floor, basement or
any other location as long as you can run any size coaxial cable to the
RTU located outside. There are no extra control lines necessary since
the RTU is completely self contained, and even the power necessary to
run it is carried by the coaxial cable. There is no additional coaxial
cable loss due to high SWR, since the RTU will automatically match your
coaxial cable to the antenna at any HF frequency within seconds. The
tuner will handle up to 200 watts. *This stealthy antenna system has all
you need to really enjoy your hobby!*
The included tuner includes a highly efficient switching L-network with
wide matching capability, 1.8 to 30 MHz coverage, and heavy-duty 10
amp/1000 volt relays. It is rated at 200 watts SSB/CW. Furnished with
Bias Tee for inserting 12 VDC from your power source (or DXE-PSW-12D1A

on the coaxial cable to the remote tuner.
