General Information
This compact receiving antenna system operates over a very wide bandwidth with superior strong
signal performance. The output Third Order Intercept (TOI) is approxi30 dBm. This is
significantly better than most aftermarket preamplifiers and receivers - making it one of the cleanest
active antennas on the market, reducing or eliminating spurious signals.
Feedline decoupling, absent in some other popular designs, is also exceptionally good. Decoupling
the shield greatly reduces feedline conducted noise and unwanted signal interference
The ARAV4 systems can be affected by local noise sources. Local noise can be random or
directional in nature. Every effort must be made to locate sources of noise that could be eliminated
at the source. Dimmer switches, electric timers, photocell-operated security lights, and many other
items can be sources of unwanted noise. If the noise source is directional in nature, using two
ARAV4 antennas in conjunction with the DXE-NCC-2 Receive Antenna Variable Phasing
Controller would allow the user to phase out the noise being received. Plasma-screen television
receivers are a known generator of unwanted noise interference. Most modern LED or LCD flat
panel televisions are not broadband noise generators.
Systems Packages
There are 4 Vertical Active Receive system packages. (DXE-ARAV4-1P, -2P, -4P, -8P)
DXE-ARAV4-1P

Non-conductive mounting plate

Aluminum 3-piece antenna element

AVA-2 Active matching system w/ Internal Antenna Disconnect Relay

DXE-FVI-1 - Feedline Voltage Injector − powers the matching system and provides radio
connections

DXE-ARAV4-2P
-
The two active antennas system package DXE-ARAV4-2P is intended to be
used with the optional DXE-NCC-2 Noise/Phase Controller to make a steerable dual vertical array.
The NCC-2 can also provide power (internal jumper selectable) for the active antennas and the
proper transmit power-off sequencing.
