Call 0345 2300 599The REZ Antenna Systems Recon 40 II, REZ-REC40-II, is a high performance HF antenna coil designed for reliable portable operation across the 40m to 10m bands when paired with the REZ [Z]-17 17ft telescoping whip, sold separately. It is built for operators who need a compact, rugged and efficient coil system for POTA, SOTA, Field Day, mobile-style portable setups and general field operation.
The Recon 40 II is wound with 14 gauge enamelled copper wire and is rated for up to 500W SSB, 300W CW and 200W digital at a 50 percent duty cycle. For faster band changes, the integrated weatherproof coil bypass switch allows operators to bypass the coil for higher frequency operation, then adjust the whip length as required.
The coil body is CNC-machined in the USA from Delrin and 6061 anodised aluminium, with clear acrylic and weather-sealed construction. O-rings and gasket seals are used at every joint to help protect the internal components from moisture, dust and debris. A precision-machined wire groove keeps the winding stable and evenly spaced for dependable low-loss performance.
A major improvement on the Version 2 Recon 40 is the integrated radial port system built directly into the base of the antenna coil. This removes the need for a separate radial puck and allows up to eight 4mm banana plug radial connections, making setup quicker and helping operators expand their radial field for improved ground performance.
