DX Commander (Signature 12.4) HF Vertical Antenna Build & Review

Post author By admin
Post date August 16, 2024

The DX Commander Signature 12.4 is an All Band Vertical HF Antenna that covers 9 bands from 80m through to 6m. It is an economical and efficient way of getting on every HF band easily with a nice compact vertical antenna.

The antenna is basically a fan dipole, but rather than horizontal, it is vertical quarter wave elements in parallel on a common driven element base with short ground radials.
