The new BB7V multiband vertical antenna provides coverage from 2 MHz to 30 MHz without radials and requires the use of a tuner if less than a 2:1 SWR is needed.
In its nested configuration it is only 60” long and weighs in at 4.5 pounds.
It has 6 telescoping sections that extend to a length of 22 feet when fully deployed. The telescoping sections are self locking (no hardware to lose) and can be raised or lowered in less than a minute.
For permanent use the sections can be locked in place with a single screw per section.
The extreme ease of raising and lowering this antenna will make it a favorite for those who have antenna restrictions or travelers wanting a quick and easy wide band antenna solution.
The BB7V is a very slim, low profile antenna.
