Like many of you, the active hams at DX Engineering remember youthful days of leafing through crisp new catalogs, circling the items that we wanted, and then wishing we had the cash to add them to our stations. So we mowed lawns, painted fences, took out the garbage, ran errands—whatever we could do to scrape together the nickels and dimes to procure that shiny new radio that would expand our world thousands of miles beyond our bedroom walls. And like Ralphie in a Christmas Story, we placed not-so-subtle hints to our parents—and ate every last vegetable on our plates—hoping that the holidays would bring the latest rig to our shacks.
While some companies have let their catalogs go the way of the horse and buggy, DX Engineering still believes that a print catalog—in addition to an easy-to-use online digital version—is something many amateur operators look forward to for reasons other than mere nostalgia.
The hot-off-the-presses 2021 DX Engineering Amateur Radio Products Catalog contains:
- 132 pages of full-color product photos with detailed descriptions covering every aspect of the hobby, from towers and the latest base, mobile, and handheld transceivers to guy rings and connectors. A Quick Find guide in the front and page headings help you find what you’re looking for fast.
- Manufacturer products displayed all at once on a single chart (e.g., readers can view all Low Band Systems band pass filters or OptiBeam antennas and their specs at a glance).
- New products are highlighted throughout, including Red Pitaya Boards, Eclipse Tools, DX Engineering’s NOISELOOP Portable Receive Flag Antenna Kit, ICOM’s IC-705 All Mode Portable Transceiver and Accessories, new RigExpert Antenna Analyzers, and many more.
- Advice on purchasing your first mobile radio
- Details on opportunities to enhance your ham radio knowledge through DX Engineering shows on Facebook and through free Zoom presentations to amateur radio clubs
