The Grazioli FE10V is a high-performance 26 to 30MHz vertical antenna designed for operators who need serious power handling, excellent mechanical strength and strong DX performance. Built as a 5/8 wave ground plane antenna with four full quarter-wave radials, the FE10V is ideal for demanding 10m and 11m installations where efficiency and durability matter.

Grazioli has engineered the FE10V using high quality AW6063-T66 aluminium alloy tubing, a material chosen for its strength, precision and long-term reliability. The cold-drawn tubular sections are manufactured with accurate diameters and wall thicknesses, giving a secure fit between sections with minimal play. All hardware is made from AISI-304 and AISI-316 stainless steel, with additional brass, PTFE and fibreglass components used where required.

The four 2.7m quarter-wave radials are made from sturdy telescopic aluminium sections and are designed to provide a resonant ground plane. This helps reduce the take-off angle compared with shorter non-resonant radial systems, making the antenna particularly effective for long-distance DX contacts.

At the heart of the FE10V is a high Q air-wound matching coil, designed for efficient impedance matching and low RF losses. The coil is DC grounded, helping to reduce static build-up and atmospheric noise. Combined with the antenna’s custom Grazioli UHF female connector, with PTFE insulation and a gold-plated centre pin, the FE10V is built to handle up to 5kW continuous power in all modes.

Key Features

  • High-performance 5/8 wave vertical antenna for 26 to 30MHz
  • Suitable for 10m and 11m operation
  • Four full quarter-wave 2.7m radials
  • Low radiation angle for improved DX performance
  • Maximum power handling of 5kW continuous, all modes
  • Tunable across 26 to 30MHz
  • High Q air-filled matching coil connected to DC ground
  • Rugged AW6063-T66 aluminium alloy tube construction
  • AISI-304 and AISI-316 stainless steel hardware
  • Custom 50 ohm UHF female connector with PTFE insulation
  • Gold-plated centre pin for long-term reliability
  • Supplied with fibreglass radial reinforcements
  • Strong G-Max stainless steel mounting bracket
  • Designed for long-term fixed outdoor installations

Construction Details

The FE10V is built from cold-drawn AW6063-T66 aluminium alloy tubing, chosen for its strength and precision. The antenna also uses fibreglass reinforcement, brass, PTFE and stainless steel components throughout. The radial system is secured using U-bolts and self-locking nuts, while the stainless steel G-Max bracket provides a strong mechanical fixing to the support mast.

Installation Notes

The FE10V should be installed on a suitable support mast with clear space around the antenna and radials. As with all high-power vertical antennas, careful installation, secure weatherproofing and good quality coaxial cable are important for best performance and long-term reliability.
