The NEW DELUXE version of the HexTenna™ by Alpha Antenna® is a legal limit and full size portable VHF/UHF/HF system for 2 to 40 meters, 220MHz, & 440MHz.
Description – The whips for the HexTenna Deluxe™ are telescopic, so as to enable you to adjust the whips/counterpoise and make the HexTenna Deluxe™ resonate as close as possible for the band you are using. This antenna is a HF/VHF Dipole and HF/VHF/UHF Vertical, which is also configurable as a HF/VHF Yagi beam by using multiple HexTenna Deluxe™ systems. This is a full-sized high performance antenna system, not a not a ‘no tune all-band antenna’. For example, when deployed for 20 meters, it has two self supporting telescopic whips that have a total deployed length of about 34 feet.
