The DX 500 is a very small active receiving antenna with a frequency range covering 30 kHz to 550 MHz. It is powered by either 12 Volt DC battery supply or 230 (110) Volt ac mains supply.
The DX 500 antenna is very unobtrusive and can be mounted in nearly every situation thanks to a large range of optional mounting devices. Several indoor units make it possible to connect the antenna to different receiver configurations, such as a shortwave receiver, a wideband scanner, a computer controlled receiver or up to three receivers to be used at the same time, whereby each receiver operates as thought it is connected to its own independent antenna.
Miniature active wideband receiving antenna for long-wave, medium-wave, short-wave, VHF - Low, FM, Air, VHF - High and UHF
Only 40 cm in height, and 35 mm in diameter
Frequency range 30 kHz 550 MHz
Omni-directional reception pattern, vertical polarisation
High intercept points, low noise
Gain increasing with the increase in frequency, hence no overload problems from strong shortwave stations and optimum VHF UHF reception
Small profile that attracts no attention, can be placed everywhere
Stainless steel antenna tube, completely weatherproof
Several mounting brackets available
Several indoorunits at choice with a single wideband- or multiple outputs for up to 3 receivers
Optional: an in line amplifier for long antenna cables or stronger signals on VHF UHF. An attenuator which adjusts the signal level on short-wave, without influencing VHF UHF reception.
Splitters to connect two receivers to a single output of the indoorunits.
Powersupply 12 Volt DC or 230 Volt ac mains (110 Volt ac optional)
Optional: DC converter to use the DX 500 with 24 V DC battery supply
Comes complete with 12 mtrs Mil-spec coaxial antenna cable and a no solder plug
