Hy-Gain

Multi-Band PATRIOT Vertical Antennas

9-band vertical covers 80/40/30/20/17/15/12/10/6 Meters

• No radials • No traps • No ground • No tuning • Handles 1500 Watts

hy-gain’s PATRIOT HF vertical antennas are the best built, best performing and best priced multiband verticals on the market today. Make full use of your sunspot cycle with PATRIOT’slow angle signal.

Instead of typical traps, hy-gain’s resonators are placed in parallel not in series. End loading of the lower HF bands allows efficient operation with a manageable antenna height.

Introducing the new Hy-Gain PATRIOT-PLUS AV-680 with a fully tunable 3.5-4.0 MHz coverage!

With the AV-680, you get the same great traditional performance of the AV-640 on 6 through 40 Meters plus top-to-bottom capability on 80 and 75 Meters.

It`s a great way to join new local nets and roundtables, explore the 75-Meter DX window, or add exciting digital frequencies to your operating repertoire.

Simply pick the band segment you wish to use, set the 80/75 Meter resonator, and you`re in business.

• No ground orradials needed -- Effective counterpoise replaces radials, end fed with broadband matching unit.
• Automatic bandswitching -- Single coax cable feed, each band is individually tunable, wide VSWR bandwidth.
• Sleek and low-profile -- Low wind surface area, small area required for mounting, mounts easily on decks, roofs and patios.
• Built-to-last -- Hy-gain’sPatriot series antennas boast ahigh wind survival due to its sleek, but sturdy frame. The matching unit is made from all Teflon
insulated wire.
• Top Loading: Parallel resonators -- best vertical-element efficiency
• Full ground independence: No unsightly wire add-on radials
• Top-to-bottom 3.5 to 4.0 MHz coverage: Pin-point fine-tuning accuracy for rock-bottom SWR on any frequency you choose.
• Single coax feed . . . and with 100% automatic band selection!
• Low profile: Most compact ground-independent antenna available!
• Legal-limit 1500-Watt PEP: Power handling on SSB and CW*

Adding 75/80 Meter coverage without compromising the Patriot`s classic performance, ground independence, and tiny footprint was no small task. Yet, the AV-680 size, weight, and wind loading are nearly identical to the AV-640 with no unsightly radial extensions, traps, or top heavy vertical structures to render it less attractive or unsafe.

Band selection remains fully automatic, all components handle maximum legal power, and you won`t need a tuner with your solid-state rig.

The AV-680`s Expanded-Frequency MatchboxTM circuit ensures low SWR readings on every band, along with an upgraded balun design that concentrates all of your power in the antenna where it belongs!

If space is a premium at your QTH and appearance matters, let Hy-Gain open the door to one of ham radio`s most attractive and popular bands with the new AV-680. This is your best choice for unparalleled versatility and band coverage from 6-80 Meters!

11-Element Broadband 5-Band Super Thunderbird Beam for 10, 12, 15, 17, and 20 Meters. The TH-11DX is designed to give the maximum DX performance to the serious amateur. Features a lossless log-periodic driven array on all bands with monoband reflectors. Includes high power BN-4000 balun which contributes to produce a maximum power rating of 2000 Watts continuous duty, 4000 Watts PEP on all modes. The TH-11DX also features a new corrosion resistant wire boom support system, hot dipped galvanized and stainless steel parts. Stainless steel hardware and clamps are used on all electrical connections.

The AV-18HT features automatic band selection achieved through a unique stub decoupling system which effectively isolates various sections of the antenna so that an electrical 1/4 wavelength (or odd multiple of a 1/4 wavelength) exists on all bands. Approximately 250 kHz bandwidth at 2:1 VVSWR on 80 Meters. With the addition of a base loading coil (LC-160Q) it also provides exceptional 160 Meters performance. Includes all stainless steel hardware and til-over base. Unity gain on 20, 40, 80; 2 dB on 10/15 Meters.

This fantastic true full-size 5/8 Wave 10 / 12 Meter vertical antenna from Hy-Gain was a legend in the 70’s . . . now it’s back to prove its legendary status once again!

A Full-size radiator with lower radiation angle concentrates power closer to the ground, where you want it. Measures 22 foot, 9.5 inches. Larger diameter, heavy wall ply-tubular construction makes the new Super-Penetrator™ the absolute top omnidirectional antenna around! Four full-length radials and special machine-formed brackets give extra talk-power and overall strength.

Electrical performance has been increased to a new standard by the use of a longer radiator and double-matching tuning with linear phasing techniques that provide low SWR and more radiated energy. The double-matching also provides a DC path to ground to drain off precipitation static, giving an extremely low noise antenna capable of high power.

SPT-500 is specifically designed to accept AM-FM-SSB-DSB signals with low loss. Handles 1.5 killowatts. This antenna is illegal for 11 Meters use.
