The Mini-Kits EME232 HF Active Vertical Whip Antenna Module has been designed to be easy to install, and covers a wide frequency range from 100kHz to 80MHz.  It is particularly useful for those that have antenna restrictions or limited space to install a full size antenna, and can be used in antenna arrays for noise cancellation or beam forming. The design incorporates static and lightning protection, and has a broadband 50ohm output impedance suitable for driving most receivers.  A J310 FET is used as the active device, and along with a complementary push pull output buffer produces high output second and third order figures reducing the possibility of inter modulation on the received signals. The design incorporates power supply decoupling so that power can be fed to the active circuit via the coaxial cable.  Refer to the Application Block Diagram on how this product can be used.

Please Note: This type of antenna being a short vertical will not perform well with high angle near vertical incidence signals below 10MHz.

Please refer to the Options TAB above on what is included with all options. It is recommended that the EME195 HF Bias Tee or EME215 HF RX Active Switch Kit is used to feed the power supply voltage up the coaxial cable to power the active antenna. For more detailed information on how this module Kit can be used Please see the EME232 Kit webpage
