HUSTLER HX10-40630 UHF Fiberglass Antenna 406-430 MHz 10 dB Gain HX Series for External Climates

For applications that call for extraordinary reliability under extreme conditions the Hustler HX Series of antennas are recommended. The HX Series antennas are suitable for use in extreme environments remote locations or tall tower installations. Dual versions of the HX Series antennas are also available upon request. HX Series antennas are available for applications from 136 MHz. to 1.2 GHz.

ELECTRICAL

Our Offset Radiator  (O.S.R.) design features phased 1/2 wave copper radiators which yield precise radiation angle control and very wide bandwidth. All O.S.R. materials are made of copper to minimize the possibility of intermodulation.  Heavy-duty radiating elements and feed system allow a maximum power of 600 watts.  Lightning protection is provided by a brass lightning prong at the top which is connected to a 0.25" diameter copper tube running the length of the antenna for grounding to your support structure.

MECHANICAL

A 2.375" diameter white extruded fiberglass radome is combined with a 28" long heavy wall (0.219") aluminum base. This structural combination provides stable vertical rigidity even in high winds.  Wind survival is at least 150 mph. Weatherproofing is accomplished through the use of a sealed type N female connector. Removable drain plugs and O-rings allow proper drainage of internal condensation whether in the upright or inverted position.

MOUNTING

Professional quality galvanized steel mounting clamps are provided.  The rigid design of the clamps prevents ratcheting or twisting of the antenna in high winds. The clams accept mounting pipes from 1.5" to 3.25" in diameter or angle members up to 2.5" per side.
