DXE-RTR-1A - Receive Antenna Interface for Transceivers
Now you can add a dedicated receive antenna to HF transceivers which lack a separate RX antenna input port!
The
DXE-RTR-1A
Receive Antenna Interface (patent pending) is a
unique multi-purpose switch unit which automatically or manually
switches the RF output antenna connector on any HF transceiver
between a separate receiving antenna system and a standard transmitting
antenna. The switching is fast enough - about 4 ms. - to allow QSK CW
operation. In its simplest application, it allows you to add a receiving
preamp to improve reception of those really weak ones! The
DXE-RTR-
1A
enables operators to enjoy the improved reception that a low noise
receiving antenna system offers. Connection to a Beverage, Receive Four-Square, Active Receive Antenna, and other
receiving antennas and accessories is now possible, safely, only with the
DXE-RTR-1A
. Re13.8 Vdc well
filtered @ 2A for operation.
Attractive Heavy Stainless Steel Enclosure
200 Watt Switching Capability
Supports CW full break in
Main Antenna has SO-239 connector
Receive Outputs use RCA phono and Type F connectors
Safe switching - transmit antenna is always connected to transceiver on power-off
Hot switching lockout - disables receive antenna during transmit mode
Versatile - allows inclusion of RF Preamps and other RX accessories
DXE-F6 - 75 ohm F-6 Style, Direct Bury Coaxial Cable: Full Spool or Custom Cable Assemblies
DX Engineering recommends using a high quality 75 Ω “flooded” F6 type coaxial cable. Flooded
style cables have the distinct advantage of automatically sealing small accidental cuts or lacerations
of the jacket. Flooding also prevents shield contamination and can be direct-buried. This low-loss
cable features dual shields and an 85% Velocity Factor.
Custom cable assemblies available, Call
DX Engineering for details.
DXE-SNS6
Snap-N-Seal connectors are recommended for use with
this coaxial cable to ensure a high quality and weather resistant feedline connection. The proper
tool
DXE-SNS-CT1
must be used to install these connectors.

DXE-SNS6-25 - Watertight Coaxial Connector, Snap-N-Seal for CATV F-6 Cable, 25 pieces
Snap-N-Seal is an environmentally sealed CATV F coaxial connector system for harsh environments. The connectors
have a unique, 360 degree radial compression system that offers the signal leakage protection required
for high performance receive systems.
Quad sealed system prevents moisture from migrating into the connection
360 degree radial compression provides superior RF integrity (-95 dB typical, 60% bonded foil
cable)
Easy cable preparation
Connector to cable retention of 40 lbs. minimum
Superb impedance match to 1 GHz
Manufactured of high quality 360 brass, cadmium plated with yellow chromate coating for maximum corrosion
resistance
UV-resistant plastic and O-rings provide a reliable environmentally sealed connector
