f.

Line Winder

The Line Winders are used to store the Antenna Wires (b), Counterpoise Wires (c), and Paracord (h), see plates
(2) and (3). They enable rapid deployment and recovery of the CHA TD.

Plate 2. Antenna Wire.

g.

Termination Resistor, CHA R-300

The Termination Resistors, see plate (4), are non-inductive 300 Ohm resistors. They enable the CHA TD to be
broad-banded without use of a tuner or coupler.
