MFJ
Vertical Antenna
MFJ Feather Lite HF Vertical Wire Antennas are 31 ft. telescopic fibreglass vertical antennas that set up in minutes, collapse to only 3.8 ft., and are perfect for RVs, vacations, Field Day, or as your gokit antenna. These wire antenna systems include an adjustable baseloading coil, balun, and counterpoise wires. Their strong 1.75 in. base supports twistlock fibreglass sections telescope to full height in moments. Despite their length, they’re so light that one person can raise or lower them easily, even in the wind.
Capable of handling a maximum of 600 W PEP, these fibreglass tubing and wire verticals feature manual coiltap tuning for low SWR on 80, 75, 60, 40, 17 metres. These 31 ft. vertical radiators require a tuner for operation on 30, 20, 15, 12, 10, 6 metres.
An airwound, highefficiency loading coil is manually adjusted to provide full coverage from 3.5 to 7 MHz. On metres, the inductor configures the antenna wire as a 5/wave for added gain. On metres, adding inductance improves the load presented to your tuner. The base tuning unit is RFisolated and can be attached to any supporting structure. MFJ’s balun helps prevent the feedline and radio from becoming part of the antenna! A detachable wire spooler makes handling and storing the antennawire easy during setup or takedown. The spooler attaches to the antenna body for convenient storage. The conductive eyebolt connected to the top end of the antenna wire may be used to install extra wires to create an inverted “L” or a “T” antenna for lowfrequency coverage. All hardware is aluminum, stainless steel, or otherwise corrosionprotected to ensure long life.
One of these MFJ vertical antennas is a great way to get on HF with minimal cost. They’re also a convenient portable or stealthy antenna!
