Introduction
The DX Engineering 40VE-2 is a fast taper single-band vertical antenna system with a low profile
top hat assembly and is slightly less than 25 feet in height. The vertical antenna is specifically
designed for low visibility, great for HOA restricted areas, while providing optimum performance
on 40 meters. The
DXE-40VE-2 can be modified for single-band operation on 30 meters by
shortening the height. There are no traps, coils or linear loading elements. Designed with 6063
corrosion-resistant aluminum tubing and stainless steel hardware, this antenna is very durable,
attractive and offers a low profile that will blend into the surroundings in areas where antennas may
be restricted.
Features
The DXE-40VE-2 vertical antenna system includes the vertical antenna elements, custom designed
top hat assembly using the patented DX Engineering MPH-1 Hub (US Patent No. 7,321,340) and
the patented DX Engineering End Insulators (US Patent No. D 534,905). All stainless steel clamps
element clamps, mounting plate assembly with a robust EXTREN
®
channel insulator, patented laser
cut DX Engineering Tilt Base with stainless steel hardware (US Patent No. 7,432,875). All stainless
steel Feedpoint Hardware, Cast Aluminum DX Engineering Saddle Clamps with Stainless Steel U-
Bolts and two DXE-SSVC-2P Stainless Steel Mounting Clamps.

WARNING!
INSTALLATION OF ANY ANTENNA NEAR POWER LINES IS DANGEROUS
Warning :
Do not locate the antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light or power
circuits, or where it can come into contact with such circuits. When installing the antenna, take
extreme care not to come into contact with such circuits, because they may cause serious injury or
death.
Overhead Power Line Safety
Before you begin working, check carefully for overhead power lines in the area you will be
working. Don't assume that wires are telephone or cable lines: check with your electric utility for
advice. Although overhead power lines may appear to be insulated, often these coverings are
intended only to protect metal wires from weather conditions and may not protect you from electric
shock
