Openwire-Fed CUTTING EDGE ANTENNA
Here is an antenna that really cuts through the QRM:
At Spiderbeam, we're busy making "Yesterday's Tomorrow", Today!
A NEW, BLEEDING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY
BASED ON THE SCISSORS-BALUN
(Partne Pending)
This design uses a new peak-performing type of wire,
rendoring antennas using other types of wire pointless!
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES:
-
NEW patent pending "Scissor Match" enables tuning the antenna directly at its feedpoint
-
Reduces transmission line loss
-
Requires no matchbox
-
-
NEW patent pending "Stati-kill" ; hundreds of tiny lightning rods prevent static electricity from accumulating on the antenna,
-
Prevents corona build-up
-
Assures a much quieter reception
-
Helps prevent lightning strikes
-
-
New patent pending "NoMoreNoise" works hand-in-hand with "Stati-kill" to protect the transmission line:
-
Kills Common Mode Current "on contact"
-
Noise caused by consumer products just disappears
-
Enhances DX reception and pulls in those rare ones
-
-
Neighborhood kids cannot climb up the ladderline!
-
Dogs and other animals quickly learn not to bite the transmission line.
-
The XYL can use it for hanging clothes out to dry, without the need for clothes pins
-
The neighbors will think it's a fence, or a clothes line, and won't bug you about Electro Smog
-
Even reduces your grocery bill (if you like poultry)
-
ENHANCES BRAGGING RIGHTS!
-
After all, you don't see an antenna like this every day!
-
WARNING: KIDS, DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME !
COMING SOON: THE BARBED-TALE CURTAIN:
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES:
-
All the features of the Cutting Edge Dipole, PLUS:
-
Much sharper primary lobes
-
Death-Valley-Like Nulls
-
Bleeding-Edge Performance!
Off-Center-Bled Dipole (OCBD)
FEATURE LIST:
- Multi-Band Coax-Fed Antenna !
- No Antenna Tuner Required (except on some WARP bands)
- Special 4:1 Dual-Cutting Vanilla Scissors Match obliviates Cutting Mode Current, assuring a clean cut through the QRM.
- Note: Vanilla Scissors Match at the feedpoint works much better than Maxwell House Match alone.
- Incorporates "NoMoreNoise" and "Stati-Kill" patent pending technology!
- It is strongly recommended to use together with a good Maxwell House Choke at the shack end of the coax.
UNDER DEVELOPMENT:
A SHORT BARBED STINGER
"BARBED BAD-BOY"
- Inverted Scissor Match assures efficient matching of the low impedance, typical of short antenna.
- Razor-Sharp Tuning assures peak penetrating performance
- Narrow bandwidth requires care in tuning but adds inherent bandpass filtering to improve reception and harmonic reduction.
- Estimated Availability: 5Q-2017
ALSO UNDER DEVELOPMENT:
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES:
-
TBD
-
This one is promising to be a low band lazer-like weapon.
-
Additional details available only under NDA
UNDER CONSIDERATION: THE BARBED BEVERAGE ON GROUND (BBOG)
Surprisingly Sharp Low Band Receive Antenna
FEATURES and ADVANTAGES:
- Nearly Invisible
- Absolutely No-Noise Guaranteed (except for an occasionally scream)
- Really rips through local QRM and QRN, especially when running barefoot.
- Extremly simple to deploy.
- Ships with special deployment protective gloves.
WARNING: NOT FOR DEPLOYMENT WHERE TOURISTS RUN BAREFOOT ON THE BEACH
(This antenna is currently on HOLD, pending outcome of legal dispute with Green Piece and Fridays for Futures.)
