*MAGIC* HF Antenna Whip Transformer For AOR Icom Yaesu Yupiteru Scanner Receiver

Description: This sale is for a "magic" whip antenna transformer with a matching range of 150 KHz thru 30 MHz covering the LW, MW, and HF tuning spectrums. The handheld radio shown in the picture above is used for visual display only and is NOT included. Also, you are required to supply your own whip antenna. Only the magic whip transformer is offered in this sale! If you have a handheld wideband radio receiver, you will typically notice that the unit will work well on the upper bands (30 MHz and upward) in the FM, VHF, and UHF frequencies. However, while most handhelds can receive the medium wave and shortwave frequencies, reception is less than optimum and can be outright very poor when using the supplied manufacturer antenna or most aftermarket antennas. If you are like us, you have replaced the original Rubber Duck or telescopic whip antenna with other variations trying to improve HF performance in the MW and SW bands. We have even traveled with more than one antenna to swap in for such purposes. However, despite this, you will find reception to be suboptimal or even very poor. The magic whip transformer can be used with a variety of handheld receivers typically used for scanning the FM / VHF / UHF bands, but also capable of tuning the lower bands. This magic whip transformer can improve reception on the lower bands (LW / MW / HF-shortwave) frequencies. We tested the magic transformer using our Yaesu VR-500 and our Icom IC-R20 handhelds and noticed a nice improvement in signal reception with a couple of antennas. However, we want to mention that depending upon the antenna used, reception gain can vary. A couple of the antennas demonstrated significant gain. Other antennas demonstrated some gain, but not as much as others. This magic antenna transformer gives us another tool in our carry kit when we head out the door for the day. Of course, if you intend to listen to certain signals on the lower bands such as that talk radio show or shortwave program, you may just keep the transformer installed for walking the dog or for that stroll through the park. We also want to mention that there are two nice features of this magic antenna transformer....it does not require any tuning and it does not require a battery or power source. Please note that this is a "RECEIVE ONLY" antenna transformer and cannot be used with a handheld unit that transmits a signal. You will be required to remove the antenna transformer to use your whip antenna on the higher bands such as FM / VHF / UHF. Here is a list of features for this antenna transformer:Frequency range 150 KHz - 30 MHzNo tuning requiredGood gainPassive....no battery requiredBNC connector (if you require an SMA connector, you may need to obtain an SMA to BNC matching connector)Small and lightweightSome examples of handheld radios that may use this antenna:Icom IC-R10Icom IC-R20AOR AR8200Alinco DJX-2000Kenwood TH-D74Yaesu VR-500Yupiteru MVT-9000any other wideband handheld that receives HF signalsYou may see the "magic" antenna transformer demonstrated in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaY3iD2cwvk&feature=youtu.be Please use the Ebay shipping calculator to determine your shipping cost.
