DXE-RADP-3 - Radial Plate, Stainless Steel with 20 Sets of SS Radial Attachment Hardware
The DX Engineering Radial Plate is meant for those of you that have or are building a quarter wave vertical antenna
and who want an easy, neat and effective way to connect those essential radial wires and the coax to your vertical
antenna for the lowest takeoff angle and strongest signals. DX Engineering Radial Plate is laser cut from tough
stainless steel so that it has smooth edges, won’t corrode and will always look good. You will be proud of how good
your installation looks. This plate will work perfectly with most commercially available vertical antennas such as
the Hutsler BTV series (4BTV thru the 6BTV), the SteppIR (BiggIR or SmallIR) or one of your own construction
DXE-TB-3P - Tilt Base Kit for Ground Mounted 1/4 Wave Vertical Antennas
The DX Engineering Tilt Base mounting plate enables operators to raise or lower an antenna in seconds while leaving
the base securely attached to the mounting post. With the Tilt Base, one person can service an antenna—no more
climbing ladders, or removing a bracket from the support post. Precision cut from 3/16 in. 304 Stainless Steel, this
mounting plate is virtually indestructible. Conveniently mounts to the same mast that you use for the antenna and
Radial Plate. Easily make repairs, tune your vertical, or lay your antenna down before bad weather hits with a DX
Engineering Tilt Base. Two
