Posted by OnAllBands on April 24, 2025 at 1:53 pm

Here’s a great opportunity to take advantage of a compact and versatile delta loop antenna when operating in the field. Offering 80-6M coverage and power handling of 500W PEP/200W Digital (50% duty cycle), REZ Antenna Systems’ Portable Delta Loop Kit delivers:

Low-Noise Reception: The closed-loop design helps reduce noise, making weak signals more intelligible.
Omnidirectional Coverage: The delta loop offers balanced radiation for reliable communications in multiple directions.
Versatile Configurations: Paired with the Scout Mounting Base and two 17-foot telescoping whips, users can create a lightweight yet strong delta loop antenna perfect for field operations, portable activations, and emergency communications.

Other benefits of shortened delta loops include simple setup, good performance at low heights, and easy tuning,

You’ll find the delta loop kit and other REZ products for easy and effective outdoor operating featured in the 25^th Anniversary Edition of the DX Engineering Amateur Radio Products Catalog coming out in May 2025.

The delta loop kit is based on REZ’s Scout Multi-Configuration Antenna System. The Scout Mounting Base (below) is CNC-machined from premium 6061 aluminum and finished with a black anodized coating for maximum weather resistance and longevity. Its custom gasket seals the SO-239 connector, providing an extra layer of protection against dust and moisture. The Scout also includes integrated 4mm radial ports compatible with standard banana plugs, making setup easy and adaptable.
