High performance 5dBd gain antenna for HPT435BT and HPT404BT transceivers
High Performance: A full 5dB gain is achieved in this antenna by featuring a 5/8 wave over 5/8 wave
whip with a base loaded matching coil. It has a power handling capacity of 200 watts.
Stylish and Durable: This antenna is manufactured using the finest corrosion resistant materials and
finishes available. The base is triple plated chrome brass with an insert molded low loss coil form and
a spring loaded contact. The silver plated phasing coil is fully enclosed to insure years of dependable
service.
Weatherproof: O ring seals and overlap construction keep moisture out of the antenna.
Antenna requires a good ground plane for optimum performance. Poor ground planes and improper mounting position
may cause less than optimum results.
An UHF Antenna Ground Plane Disk (p/n 10-587400-01) should be installed at the bottom of the antenna if 12ft/3.6
m antenna cable p/n 14-578117-06(05, 07) Accessory UHF Ant Cable TNC (BNC, SMA)/NMO with pole mount antenna
adapter is used.
If the antenna is mounted on the metallic surface (a car roof or a plate of iron or steel) using magnet mount adapter, it
would substitute the Disk.
Optional 12ft/3.6 m antenna cables with magnet mount type of mounting adapter are p/n 14-578115-02 (01) Accessory
UHF Ant Cable TNC (BNC)/NMO with standard magnet mount adapter and p/n 14-578116-02 (01) Accessory UHF Ant Cable
TNC (BNC)/NMO with Mini-magnet mount adapter.

WHIP CUTTING INSTRUCTIONS
The whip should be cut to the length that corresponds to the de-
sired frequency you expect to operate on. In most cases it is de-
sired to cut the whip a bit longer than the chart and make final ad-
justment by moving the whip in the adapter. Please note that the
lengths given in the chart are the total length of the antenna whip.
Each antenna is supplied with a whip that is trimmed to operate
at the lowest frequency. To adjust for a higher frequency you must
cut an appropriate amount from the bottom of the whip. Adjust-
ment of the exact frequency can be made by moving the cut whip
up or down in the adapter and checking the lowest VSWR.
Coil assemblies are factory tuned and sealed. No adjustment should be attempted on them. All frequency adjustments
should be made by trimming the whip. As a rule, you should be able to obtain a VSWR of 1.5 to 1. If you are unable to
accomplish this, a check for correct whip length and proper mounting condition is recommended.
1) Using hexagon wrench unscrew two screws at the base
of the antenna and remove the antenna whip.
2) Cut the end opposite the antenna’s top in accordance
with the table.
3) Clean 15 mm of the paint for good contact.
4) Insert the cleaned end of the antenna whip into the base
and tighten two screws.
5) After cutting the antenna do not forget to write down the
frequency on the label, if it is available.
6) After cutting, measure the antenna VSWR.
All cuts made on antennas
with phasing coils should
be made on the bottom rod
only. Measure the length of
the rod cut from the lower
edge of the phasing coil to
the end of the whip.
