A 43' vertical of heavy duty construction for use on 5 bands between 60m and 17m

The VertiGo 43V is optimised in length and mechanical design too in order to ensure you do not need to guy this antenna, it stands up by itself! Least visual impact means a happy partner and neighbours

The 43V uses its whole length as a radiator on every band. While it operates only as a 2-band antenna if direct fed (21MHz and 7MHz) An auto ATU placed at the base of the antenna ensures that the antenna remains the only antenna in your system and not the coax too (as it would be if you use a radio-end ATU).

While ground plane wires are best installed. With the VertiGo 43V, you can mount at ground level without the detrimental impact of buildings and trees that you might expect on upper HF and VHF.

Base of this antenna is 60mm diameter Base tube tapering to 6mm diameter at the top

160m/80m - For use on these band you will need a wide range ATU but efficiency will be down and received signals not as strong as on other bands. The 160-80-Coil kit which is fitted between the antenna and ATU will provide usage on these bands.

15m, 12m, 10m and 6m - At the length this antenna is, radiated angle on these bands starts to increase so although the antenna will work, the results will be provide more 'local' and serious DX ones
