Active Antenna 10 kHz to 30 MHz

This active antenna covers 10 kHz to 30 MHz for radio communication. The kit includes a whip, power module, and two cables measuring three metres and eight metres. High-quality plastic construction provides durability. It operates from a 9V to 15V supply.

Suited for mobile HF listeners

Drivers and portable operators needing wideband receive coverage from longwave through the HF bands will find this kit convenient. The two cable lengths allow flexible mounting on a vehicle or temporary mast. Builders who need transmit capability should look elsewhere, as this unit is receive-only. Installers requiring a different voltage range cannot use this model.

9V to 15V operating voltage

The antenna draws power from any source delivering between 9 and 15 volts DC. This range matches common vehicle electrical systems and many portable battery packs. Verify that your supply stays within these limits before connecting the power module. No other voltage range is supported.

Questions about this item

Which cable length should I pick for my vehicle install?

The kit supplies a 3 metre and an 8 metre lead so you can route the shorter run inside the cabin or the longer one along the chassis.

What does the 10 kHz to 30 MHz range mean for daily listening?

It covers longwave, mediumwave and the full shortwave band, letting you hear maritime, aviation and amateur signals in one antenna.

How does the 9 V to 15 V supply requirement affect installation?

The amplifier accepts any DC source within that window, so it can be wired directly to a standard vehicle electrical system.
