Hi-Z Antennas has been producing excellent low band receiving systems for many years. Hi-Z’s
focus on improvements to low noise components and array systems
has been a singular goal that has resulted in high performance
receiving antennas for Amateur and radio enthusiasts, especially for
160 meters, 80 meters and AM DXing. Hi-Z Antennas’ specialized
systems have been pushing the boundaries of weak signal HF
reception with directional arrays that have been installed and used
around the world. They are recommended by some of the world’s leading contesters and DXers and
are now available
Exclusively from DX Engineering

Refer to the Hi-Z Antennas’ receive systems for various layout schemes for the particular Hi-Z
system you are installing. Hi-Z products are available from DX Engineering and can be seen on the

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.
PTX-82180 Permatex Ultra Black RTV Silicone
DX Engineering Approved RTV Sealant by Permatex. Normal RTV gives off acetic acid when it cures. That's the
vinegar smell. The acetic acid causes the corrosion. DX Engineering has located a Neutral Cure RTV made right here
in Ohio that is non-corrosive and is safe for sealing those baluns and other electronic gear that are going to be out in
the weather. Applies just like "normal" RTV, dries in one hour and cures in 24 hours at 70 degrees F. And it doesn't
smell like vinegar. Permatex Ultra Black RTV silicone adhesive is designed to provide a waterproof, flexible, weather-
resistant seal around metal, glass, rubber, and more. It's made to withstand temperatures of up to 500 degrees F.
TES-2155 - 3M Temflex™ 2155 Rubber Splicing Tape
.
Conformable self-fusing rubber electrical insulating tape. It is designed for low voltage electrical insulating and moisture
sealing applications. For outdoor use, it should be protected from UV deterioration with an overwrap of
