Touch free operations:

The system enables you to switch bands or change frequencies without having to change switches, jumpers, or coils as it is an off-center fed dipole type vertical that is pre-tuned when deployed over real ground. Making this antenna especially useful if you have a disability such as being mobility or sight impaired.

As an added benefit, an external antenna tuner can be used to achieve a near perfect match if your HF antenna is installed over a poor ground or not placed in a clear area.

 

NVIS for EMCOMM

The optional 60 foot NVIS element activates your HF MIL 2.0 antenna for NVIS, which is needed for EmComm. You will not need a tuner when this element is installed, however, you may still use one if the antenna is installed over a poor ground or not placed in a clear area to achieve a lower SWR.

    Easy set up. Good enough to use for my base until I get my long wire up. For now-it lives with my Go-Box

    I purchased the Mil. Antenna 2.0 for use in the field, travel and field days. I got it on sale so good buy. Set it up this wkend on a tripod in 5 minutes. Using a tuner compared it to my random wire, the alpha performed very well using the supplied ground & counterpoise. My wire is over 100 ft. and takes time to set up, the alpha sets up fast. Reception was slightly less than my wire in side by side, a trade I’m willing to accept for the convenience. Made phone contacts on 17, 20, 40 and 80 meters. All signal reports were 5×5 to 5×9. All in all I found the antenna worked well, easy to setup, tuned easily and comes down in a snap & all fits inside the handy carry bag. Happy with this purchase.
