The DX Engineering DXE-8040-30AOK kit adds 30 meter coverage to the DX Engineering 80/40
dual band vertical antenna without giving up any existing band coverage.
This kit will operate across the entire 30 meter band at full legal limit with an SWR of 1.5:1 or less
and adds negligible wind loading to the antenna.
No disassembly of the existing antenna is required.
Simply install this kit, check the tuning (if needed, make some minimal tuning adjustments) and
you're on the air with an additional band.
