PLEASE CONTACT US FIRST FOR DELIVERY COSTS SO THAT YOU CAN GET AN ACCURATE COSTING The Sigma Euro-Comm SE HF X-80The SE HF X-80 is an end fed aluminium vertical antenna, capable of allowing the user to work 80 metres through 6 metres bands using an ATU, also not requiring any counterpoise and can be fed using coax cable. The antenna can be pole mounted at ground level or elevated depending on the users personal requirements. The antenna is rated at 400 watts PEP. The antenna comes complete with all fixings and fixtures and full installation guide. The power rating is for intermittent amateur (400W CW or 400W SSB) use and not for AM broadcast or constant carrier data modes. For AM broadcast a much higher power BALUN is required." How it works: The antenna is fed using 50 Ohm coax via a SO-239 socket at the base of the unit. A 6:1 UNUN transformer is located in an IP65 weather sealed box at the bottom of the 6 meter telescopic aluminium element. The transformer reduces the impedance at the feed point to a more acceptable level making the antenna much more efficient and allowing proper and easy tuning via an external ATU and automatic ATUs found in most modern radios. The antenna can be grounded if the user experiences excessive local static noise, but as the UNUN is DC grounded: grounding will not affect the tuning ratios. The Highlighted bands in the chart below will require a manual ATU, the others an internal ATU. Frequency VSWR 3.5 MHz 80 m with Manual ATU 1.1 7 MHz 40 m with ATU 1.1 10 MHz 30 m , with ATU 1.1 14 MHz 20 m with ATU 1.1 18 MHz 17 m with Manual ATU 1.1 21 MHz 15 m with ATU 1.1 24 MHz 12 m Manual ATU 1.1 28 MHz 10 m with ATU 1.1 50 MHz 6 m with Manual ATU 1.1 Please use a good quality 50 Ohm coax, RG-213 or Mini 8 are probably the best choice.

So in the late '70s, efforts were focused on designing and manufacturing CB radios and antennas and selling from a local shop. During the '80s the market really took off and Paul joined his father, moving to their first premises and creating Sigma Euro-Comm Limited. Through listening to our customers requirements, we're constantly looking at how we can improve and innovate our CB offerings and now boast one of the most extensive range of CB antennas, supplying to both end customers and trade partners across the globe. Home to the original, and in our opinion, still the best, the Sigma Stinger which was one of the first products that rolled off the production line back in the 90s, followed over the years by our best selling X80 and 360 HF vertical antennas. Despite our growth, all our products are still made right here in our factory in the heart of Birmingham.... just a much bigger site to the one we had back in 1990! FAQ's These are some of the most common questions we get asked by our customers: How do I protect my antenna from the elements? We always recommend protecting any exposed areas of your antennas, such as the UNUN box, with tape or another waterproof material. The sea air and extreme cold will over time have a detrimental affect on exposed areas. Do I need an ATU for my antenna? Many of our antennas will perform much better with the use of an ATU. We do have antennas that will need an ATU such as the X-80, HF-360 and HF-360XP. Please contact us if you are unsure if your antenna choice will require one. How do I mount my antenna? Vertical Antennas: Work best when mounted on a short metal pole at ground level. You can mount 10 - 20 feet up but the higher you mount, the further away the antenna moves from it's natural earth. CB Mobile Antennas: Our Stinger antennas will require a mount depending on how you wish to mount it. Still need technical advice?
