The RF-1944 antenna series are lightweight, transportable
broadband dipole antennas that provide radiation patterns ideal
for HF skywave communications from 0 to 1500 miles. The
rugged, yet simple design allows quick installation into its
primary Inverted Vee configuration. The termination loads pro-
vide instantaneous bandwidth performance over the entire 1.6
to 30 MHz frequency range. The RF-1944 antenna is an
excellent choice when operating with frequency agile
waveforms because an antenna coupler is not required.
The RF-1944 antenna series consists of two antennas designed
for two power levels.
I The RF-1944-AT150 (shown above) is for up to 150 Watts
and weighs 9 lbs (4.1 kg).
I The RF-1944-AT400 is for up to 400 Watts and weighs
11 lbs (5 kg). It is slightly larger than the 150-Watt version.
The antenna is comprised of a balun, two dipole radiating
elements, two terminating loads, two ground rods, two ground
stakes, coaxial cable, weighted throwing line and carrying
bag. The coaxial cable has male BNC connectors for
direct attachment to the balun and radio or power
amplifier. The RF-1944 antenna does not
include a mast.
