New Versa Beam Lite Version [ Japan ]

Versa Beam

The Kohjinsha was developed over the course of two years from conception, to obtain the release was well received all of the expansion and contraction type Yagi “VERSA Beam antenna” to cover the amateur radio band series, including the WARC bands of 7 ~ 50MHz band there.

　The series, by a digital controller, a structure in which the inside of the fiberglass pole is made of copper elements to match the frequency expands and contracts in length that has been input in advance, operate as a full-size Yagi antenna in the 10 ~ 50MHz band. If Okurikome the data of each band from the transceiver, antenna will automatically follow the frequency, us to adjust the length of the copper elements in the fiberglass pole. Center loading VP of telescopic antenna Yagi antenna is the world’s first revolutionary structure, a sensation around the DXer from its launch, the reservation waiting state was followed for a while.

　This time, and the standard version, the company, in addition to “Super VERSA series” of more than 8 elements with lattice boom, basic functions of the “VERSA Beam antenna” is intact, 3 element Yagi antenna, which was downsized “VERSA Lite It has announced two models of the series “.

“KA1-203 Lite” is about 30% reduction in the 14MHz band, as a three-element Yagi antenna VP of 18MHz band is about 12% reduction, and more than 21MHz band operates as a three-element Yagi antenna of full-size. On the other hand, “KA1-403 Lite” is 7MHz band is about 50% reduction, dipole antenna of the 10MHz band is reduced by about 30%, 14MHz band is about 30% reduction, 18MHz band is about 12% of the 3 elements VP antenna, 21MHz band or more to operate as a three-element Yagi antenna of full-size.
