RX 5000
Self-Supporting Wide-Band Receiving Whip
Antenna for the LF,MF and HF Bands,
DESCRIPTION
* This antenna provides a very efficient means of establishing a universal,
wide-band 50 ohm receiving aerial system for the complete LF, MF and HF bands in one
unit.
* The antenna consists of a high-capacitance, 5 m long glass fiber whip with a
frequency -compensated wide-band impedance transformer mounted in the bottom
end.
* The transformer converts the widely varying antenna impedance to a constant 50 ohm,
making it possible to use length-independent, shielded, standard RG 58 C/ or RG
213 U, RG519, H1000 as down lead cable to the 50 ohm receiver.
* The antenna is protected against noise pick-up running on the outside of the
down lead cable, and it is protected against static by DC-grounding,
* Moreover, the 50 ohm receiver and the matching transformer itself are protected against RF
overload and violent discharges by an air spark gap (approx. 1kv),a gas filled spark gap (90V) and a resistance network.
* To prevent electrolytic corrosion, the coaxial cable braid is only capa-citively coupled to the
earth connection.
* lnstallation is easily carried out by means of the two hot galvanized mast clamps.The antenna
is of very small weight and minimum wind surface, thereby requiring only a minimum of mast
strength.
* The glassfiber construction gives a stiff gnd self-supporting structure with extremely good
resistance against the corrosive marine enviroment with UV-radiation, salt, exhaust gases
and ice formation as primary factors.
* RX 5000 is a maintenance-free and very reliable construction.
