Transporting the NVIS Antenna
The DX Engineering NVIS antennas can be collapsed, wires wrapped and made ready for transport
without disassembling the entire antenna. This makes these antennas a viable option for on-the-go
emergency or portable operation.
Loosen the upper band clamp on one of the telescoping clamps to allow
the section to telescope inside the larger tube, snug the clamp in place,
then do the same for the other clamps. The antenna system will collapse
to less than 6 feet in length.
Secure the wires, ropes and coaxial cable to configure the antenna to be
easily transported.
DX Engineering offers Velcro style “Rip-Ties” that are perfect for
securing wrapped antenna wires, coaxial cable and ropes.
See the DX Engineering web site for details.
