DXE-P8A  -  Penetrox™ A Anti-Oxidant - 8 oz. Squeeze Bottle

 

Use Penetrox™ A electrical joint compound to affect a substantial electrical connection between metal parts 
such as telescoping aluminum tubing or other antenna pieces. Ensures high conductivity at all voltage levels 
by displacing moisture and preventing corrosion or oxidation. For Aluminum to Aluminum, Aluminum to 
Copper, or bare conductors. Not recommended for use with rubber or polyethylene insulated wire.

DXE-RADW - 500K or 1000K  Radial Wire Kits and Components

 

To achieve optimal performance with a ground-mounted vertical, install as many radials as possible. These bulk radial wire kits 
use insulated wire that is UV resistant, hard to see and lays down easily, unlike the wire that is commonly available at the big box 
stores. It will last much longer in contact with soil than bare wire. 
The DXE-RADW- 500K or 1000K kit provide everything you will need to build the perfect radial system!  

 

500/1000 ft. spool of 14 AWG, stranded copper wire with vinyl insulation

DXE-VMN-1  -  Vertical Antenna Matching Network  

The 

DXE-VMN-1

 Vertical Antenna Matching Network is custom designed for use with base-fed quarter wave 

resonant vertical antenna systems.  In some vertical antenna installations with excellent radial systems, achieving the 
best SWR on a resonant vertical for 80 meters may be difficult without some means of adjusting feedpoint 
impedance. The 

DXE-VMN-1

 allows easy adjustment for lowest SWR. The 

DXE-VMN-1

 Vertical Antenna 

Matching Network will aid in tuning a low impedance antenna to the minimum SWR in the customer selected portion 
of the 80 meter band.  The #12 AWG coil wire is tin-nickel plated for high power handling, corrosion resistance, ease 
of soldering and long term reliability.

  

As an added benefit, the 

DXE-VMN-1

 will act as a static bleed for your 

vertical antenna in areas where precipitation or snow static is present. The Vertical Matching Network may be 
installed between ground and the feedpoint of any quarter wave base-fed vertical antenna - including mobile antennas. 
It 

CANNOT

 be used on non-resonant antenna such as a 43 foot vertical. 

 
 

 
DXE-KIT-DBR - DX Engineering Tube Deburring Tool Kit

 

Designed and manufactured in the USA, DX Engineering Tube Deburring Tools feature hardened steel cutting 
surfaces arranged in a conical shape. Both the interior and exterior of the tool's cone may be used to smooth the rough 
edges of the inside and outside of the cut ends of pipe and tubing. Its rotational symmetry allows easy reaming and 
deburring rough-cut tubing edges with minimum effort. The UT-2125 is usable on all tubing and pipe sizes from 3/8” 
to 2-1/8” OD.  The UT-3500 covers sizes from 1-7/8” to 3-1/2” OD. The complete tool kit, model UT-KIT-DBR, 
includes both sizes of conical tools, a small hand deburrer and a half round file. DX Engineering Tube Deburring 
Tools are reversible, so they are ideal to debur both ID and OD of aluminum tubing prior to telescoping the sections 
together. These tools assure a smooth fit without galling and seizing that can occur with the slightest roughness. Only 
a couple of revolutions with very light pressure is needed to produce excellent results. DX Engineering Tube 
Deburring Tools may be used to debur tubing and pipe made of aluminum, fiberglass, copper, steel, plastic pipe, etc.
