Hustler GP G7 omnidirectional antenna, 136 - 174 MHz

Technical description

The Hustler monoband omnidirectional VHF antennas are designed for stationary use on land. The construction is extremely robust, the maximum permissible wind speed is approx. 160 km/h. The usable bandwidth is about 6 MHz (at an SWR of 2:1 or better), different models are available for the different band ranges. The radiator is grounded and thus dissipates overvoltages and static charges without endangering the radio.

All models can be loaded with up to 600 watts and have an N socket

Application description

The Hustler G7 VHF antennas have an approximately 470cm high radiator consisting of three segments (3x 5/8 Λ). At the bottom 4 radials with approx. 9mm diameter and 50cm length form the counterweight. The antenna must be balanced, for this purpose simply loosen the clamps on the radiator segments and change the length. By the adjustment one reaches the best achievement on the desired frequency and does not accept compromises. A simple SWR meter is sufficient for alignment, alternatively use the enclosed alignment table (with inch measurements).
