DXE-RADP-3 - Radial Plate, Stainless Steel w/ 20 Sets of SS Radial Attachment Hardware 

The patented DX Engineering Radial Plate is meant for those of you that have or are building a quarter wave 
vertical antenna and who want an easy, neat and effective way to connect those essential 
radial wires and the coax to your vertical antenna for the lowest takeoff angle and strongest 
signals.  The DX Engineering Radial Plate is laser cut from tough stainless steel so that it has 
smooth edges, won’t corrode and will always look good. You will be proud of how good 
your installation looks.  This plate will work perfectly with DX Engineering and Comtek 
vertical antenna systems as well as most commercially available vertical antennas such as the 
Hustler BTV series (4-BTV thru the 6-BTV), the SteppIR (BiggIR or SmallIR) or one of 
your own construction
