The new SUPER SLINKY HELICAL DIPOLE Antenna works with almost any radio in almost any situation! Icom, Kenwood or Yaesu, all work great with the SUPER SLINKY ALL BAND DIPOLE on the ham bands.
THREE NEW FEATURES:1)
A Quality, FULL SIZE, Balun has been added to the system! Based on solid technical research, a Choke Balun has been added to the system to guarantee users Less common mode noise and a better Balanced radiation Pattern! The Balun also prevents your coax feedline from radiating and transfers all the RF to the antenna and reducing RFI/TVI problems!! This a Real Coax Choke Balun, based on technical articles in the ham literature and that is made in a professional style that is functional as well as neat looking. No miniature, ugly windings looking like they were made by inexperienced, non-technical hams! 2)All insulators are made from UV Resistant material!!! The insulators are made from UV resistant plastic electrical conduit! THEN: They are sprayed with a NEW UV resistant clear acrylic spray that further extends the life of the insulators! 3) All PL-259 connectors used on this antenna are high quality and hand soldered by a Pro! 4) Coax is High Quality,
shielded RG-58(90 % copper braid) cable(
color of insulation on coax
may vary
).
The Super Slinky Helical All Band Dipole Antenna provides users with a practical antenna that performs! It uses a simple but proven design that allows users to have almost full size performance in a smaller footprint! Even if you live in an apartment, or and can't put up a permanent outside antenna to surf the airwaves, the Super Helical Dipole Antenna will improve your reception. Even if you are a cliff dweller but can't afford their prices, the Super Slinky Helical All Band Dipole is a perfect answer.
THE INSTRUCTIONS WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE PACKAGE. PDF CAN BE SENT ALSO.
It allows you operate in limited space, portable or travel situations, too!
Ham radio operators have used the Helical design antenna for years in various configurations when limited space has been a consideration. This design has been adapted by an experienced Ham radio operator, LOWBANDER, who has over 51 years of antenna building experience, holds a FCC Amateur Extra Class License, and sits on the TOP RUNG of the ARRL DXCC HONOR ROLL! This old DXer Knows what it takes to make good antennas from personal DX experience!
The Super Slinky Helical Dipole is designed for situations with limited space and comes with a 50 foot COAX FEEDLINE after the balun! No fake plugs or weird F connectors here on coax, just a standard PL-259 plug!!
It offers flexibility and ease of installation that can be changed easily to fit your location. Changing the direction and length of the antenna by stretching it out more can in a sense "tune" the antenna! Easy to tune on 40-10 Meters by adjusting length of the legs of the dipole. With a tuner 80 Meters is easily tuned to resonant frequency ! With changing conditions and propagation on the bands this is a real plus!
KNOWLEDGE OF HOW TO TUNE A SIMPLE DIPOLE REQUIRED!
One of the most unique features of the Super Slinky Helical Dipole Antenna is the compact nature of the design. When done using, it can be returned to its original, tiny size, and packed away out of sight! Maybe you have a wife or a landlord who will not tolerate wires laying all over the place or hanging out your windows! If so, the Super Slinky Helical Dipole is a perfect fit for your location!
On the ham bands the Super Slinky Helical Dipole is great for travel or limited space situations. It can be used in a hotel or motel room. The Super Slinky Helical Dipole makes a great vacation antenna and beats trying to use the mobile antenna to make decent contacts. I have personally used this antenna while camping and it was a truly awesome antenna stretched out between convenient trees. The convenient eye hook in the center insulator makes it very easy to use as an inverted Vee configuration. It only takes one support rope or nylon cord when using the Inverted Vee installation.
The Super Slinky Helical Shortwave Antenna can be configured in hundreds of ways and can be deployed to fit the unique situation at your home location. Here are just a few examples: SW listeners can deploy the Super Slinky by stretching it out on the floor, hiding it behind furniture, attaching it to the baseboard of house or apartment, thumb tack it to the wall or ceiling, dropping it out the window vertically, stretching it out across the rafters in the attic, stretching it out the window to a nearby tree or pole and tying off the end!!! The instructions sheets offer numerous ways the Super Slinky Helical Dipole Antenna can be used successfully.
The only limitation is the user's imagination!
In most cases it will make an awesome difference in the quality of your reception and transmission over a mobile or random length wire.
The Super Helical Dipole Antenna has over 60' of high quality coiled steel wire in each HALF of the dipole, for a total of 120 feet which gives users a huge signal capture area for radio signals when receiving! This length makes the antenna very efficient. The only power limitation for the Super Slinky Helical Dipole is the RG-58 coax, which of course, can easily handle 300 watts!
The coax feed line, which is SOLDERED to each half of the Slinky for the best electrical connection, doesn’t rely on any rivets or mechanical spacers, which often fail over time, to maintain electrical contact! Every joint is SOLDERED! This means years of reliable service.
The Super Helical offers these important advantages over other popular antennas: 1) This antenna can be used on a multitude of shortwave and ham bands, because the length of the antenna can be adjusted so easily, 2) The antenna direction and length are easily adjusted to fit conditions, 3) The compact nature of the antenna gives users with limited space a real chance to hear signals on the bands! It can be returned to its original small size in seconds and stored away when not in use! 4)The antenna is a No hassle, Easy to Use, and truly Plug and Play.
Look at the pictures to see how small, compact and easy to use this antenna really is!
If you can't put up a permanent outside antenna, you should give very serious consideration to the Super Helical All Band Dipole!! Many buyers of the Super Slinky Helical Dipole have stretched the antenna out inside their attic and have had great results working all of the US and lots of DX as well on the higher bands!
If you can install an antenna outside, but have limited space, take at the photo showing the Super Slinky Helical Dipole installed outside. A Huge capture area results in such an installation as this! The other photo showing the installation hung from a 15' pole off my back deck is another practical arrangement. The center is attached at about 15' and the ends are stretched out and tied off to any convenient object like a fence. The Super Slinky Helical Dipole performed great in this arrangement and I was able to work all the USA on 40 Meters with this set up running my barefoot transceiver! But the best part is that it took less than 10 mintues to install it and I was on the air almost immediately! But this is only one type of set up. One customer hung his Super Helical Dipole from his chimney and claimed it outperformed his 0 commercial vertical!
Another recent buyer sent this email after installing his New Super Slinky Dipole:
Dear lowbander
,
I have put it up temporarily, and it works very well. Very happy with it so far! The antenna is fashioned as an inverted vee, with the apex at about 22' above ground hung on a tree branch. One of the first contacts was J6/DL7AFS. Awesome! Thanks for a great dipole at a reasonable price! Thank you, thank you! 73's, Rich, WB2KWF
Look at the photo below of some of the real QSL cards I have received for contacts using the Super Slinky Helical Dipole Antenna. These are actual cards from contacts with the Super Slinky!! Note these are rare DX stations too! But what else what you expect from an experienced DXer who really knows DX and antennas!!
Your imagination is the only limitation for installations!
