The following Hy-Gain

verticals are well

adapted for the phasing arrangements
shown in this reports

MODEL 18HT-S HY-TOWER

The 18HT-S is a multi-band vertical antenna
with automatic band selection of 10-80 meters
by means of a unique stub decoupling system.
The Hy-Tower with a base loading coil
operates efficiently on 160 meters. The system
is foolproof, fed directly with a single 50 ohm
coax. No guys are required for the 24 feet high,
self-supporting tower. The top mast extends
the height to 50 feet. Two units make an ideal
phased array.

MODEL 18AVT/WB-S

The 18AVT/WB-S is a multi-band trap vertical

for 10 through 80 meters. It is completely fac-
tory

pre-tuned and exhibits an extremely low

angle

DX radiation pattern. It is easy to as-

semble, light weight which one man can install.
A single 50 ohm coaxial feedline is required.
Two or three 18AVT/WB-S's make an
excellent phased array.
