Blue MA-05 Antenna Base M10x1.5 with Ground Grid and Mount for HAM SPACE 5.6-Meter Shortwave Telescopic Antenna

Blue MA-05 Antenna Base M10x1.5 with Ground Grid and Mount for HAM SPACE 5.6-Meter Shortwave Telescopic Antenna

Description:
- This base is used in conjunction with a 5.6-meter rod antenna and can be switched between 14mHz-50MHz by adjusting the rod length, requiring some manual dexterity.
- It can be adjusted according to antenna splitter.
- It is recommended to use four 3.5m 0.5-2.5-square flexible wires for the standard grounding network, and the enhanced grounding network can be matched with 1/4 wavelength according to the usage band.

Specification:
- Model: MA-05
- Telescopic interface: M10, thread pitch of 1.5
- Feed line interface: M female
- Ground mount interface: M10 thread, 1.5mm thread pitch
- Shell material: 3D-printed, ABS material
- SWR: < 1.7 (set up a matching ground grid on the ground)
- Withstand power: 200W (FT8 100W)
- Weight: about 92g for base; about 136g for ground grid; 135g for ground mount
- Height: about 59.3mm
- Diameter: about 37.7mm (excluding the M female base)

Connection Method:
- Connect the M10 5.6-meter rod antenna to the ANT end, insert the GND end into the ground grid and twist the ground mount. After inserting it into the ground, lay the ground grid horizontally in all four directions. Use an M male feeder to connect the base and adjust the length of the telescopic rod according to the frequency band used. Please pay attention to the radio standing wave meter when using it (standing wave should be less than 1.8 as much as possible)

Package Included:
- 1 x Antenna Base
- 1 x Ground Grid
- 1 x Ground Mount

Note:
- The telescopic antenna is not included.
