If you attended the Visalia, California festivities this last weekend you may have seen two new products we were showing, the SV-5 and the XR-7. As both of these products shown were very early pre-production units, with engineering not yet completed, specifications and final pricing are not yet available, however, I wanted to let the list know about our new toys. SV-5 The SV-5 is a CC&R friendly antenna closely related to our Sigma 5 but with a TV type yagi on the top. We've limited the height of this antenna and perched a lovely grouping of aluminum on the top only to receive your local TV station if needed. Is this a TV antenna that works on the 20 through 10 meter bands or is it a ham band antenna that receives TV signals? It's both! XR-7 The XR-7 (in this stage of development) consists of a XR-5 with an 8' boom extension and a Sigma 80/40 single element addition. The single element 80/40 is a new design for us and uses a relay box to switch from 80 to 40 and is a cousin to the Sigma design we use on 40 and 80 now. The final version of this antenna is several months away but we'll be working to speed things along after Dayton as our testing schedule allows. The completion of this design will give us a solution to those who want a single boom 80, 40, 20, 17, 15, 12, 10 meter antenna in a reasonable size factor with a 26' boom..
