NOTE: SOLD OUT ON BACK ORDER
5-BTV: Were designed as self supporting verticals to provide efficient operation in the 10, 15, 20, 40, and 75 or 80 meter bands. These antennas perform well in restricted space areas. For peak performance, a field of radial wires should be used.
Hustler 5-BTVs provide for automatic selection of bands through the use of optimum-Q traps which are individually and precisely tuned and internally sealed at the factory. These traps are parallel tuned circuits, which provide very effective isolation between the vertical sections, permitting precise multi band operation.
Performance provided by the Hustler 5BTVs is better than any other antenna of this type. Broad banding is such that one measurement and setting permits both phone and CW operation. The antenna provides nominal 52 Ohm base impedance when installed and tuned according to the instructions. The radiation efficiency is equal to, or greater than, other trap verticals. As Hustler says, these antennas offer solid signals, solid construction and solid value.
