Information

The Hustler 4-BTV is a four band trap vertical, providing an omnidirectional pattern. The 4-BTV is designed as a self-supporting vertical to provide optimum operation, 10 through 40 meters. This Antenna is expressly designed for those installations with restricted areas. The Hustler 4-BTV provides electrical selection of bands through the use of optimum Q traps, which are individually and precisely tuned and internally sealed at the Hustler factory. Your warranty will be null and void if the traps are tampered with . The traps are parallel tuned circuits which provide efficient insulation between the vertical sections,'thus permitting multi-band operation. Broad band conditions over the entire ham band and very low SWRs are possible, when installed properly. The 75 meter operation is provided when the Super Hustler RM -7 5 -S is installed on the top of the 4-BTV. The Hustler 4-BTV was designed to provide optimum performance from both an electrical and mechanical standpoint. Mechanically, this Antenna boasts a heavy duty base and heavy duty aluminum tubing. The mechanical assembly is accomplished with all stainless steel clamps. The use of these clamps permits readjustment at a later date if necessary, and permits individual peaking of each band, if so desired. The mechanical construction is such that guying is rrot ordinarily needed or desired. If the 75 meter resonator is attached to the 4-BTV, under extreme conditions, it may be desirable to guy the Antenna above the 20 meter trap with small diameter polypropylene rope. The electrical performance provided by the Hustler 4-BTV is considerably improved over any other Antenna of this type. Broad banding is such that only one measurement is provided, which permits operation over the entire ham band. Separate settings for Phone and CW are not necessary. The Antenna provides a nominal 52 ohm base impedance when installed and tuned according to instructions. The radiation efficiency is equivalent to, or greater than, other trap verticals.
