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 Ω 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 fibre

antenna element 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 Ω, making it possible to use length-independent, shielded,

standard RG 58 C/U or RG 213/U as downlead cable to the 50 Ω

receiver.

The antenna is protected against noise pick-up running on the outside of

the downlead cable, and it is protected against static by DC-grounding.

Moreover, the 50 Ω receiver and the matching transformer itself are

protected against RF overload and violent discharges by an air spark gap

(approx. 1 kV), a gas filled spark gap (90 V) and a resistance network.

To prevent electrolytical corrosion, the coaxial cable braid is only

capacitively coupled to the earth connection.

Installation is easily carried out by means of the two hot galvanized

mast clamps. The antenna has very small weight and minimum wind

surface, thereby requiring only a minimum of mast strength.

The glass fibre construction gives a stiff and self-supporting structure

with extremely good resistance against the corrosive marine

environment with UV-radiation, salt, exhaust gases and ice formation as

primary factors.

RX 5000 is a maintenance-free and very reliable construction.
