ARLA/CLUSTER: SteppIR anuncia pequena antena Yagi directional para as áreas urbanas

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

New SteppIR Beam, Huge Signal

“We’re champions of the little pistol,� says *Mike Mertel*, YASME
Excellence Award winner and SteppIR Antennas President, as SteppIR Antennas
announces the immediate availability of the new *SteppIR UrbanBeam* Yagi
antenna.

“Putting up a conventional aluminum beam can present challenges for some
homeowners due to size and aesthetics. With a 4-foot boom length and
turning radius of under 16 feet, but still covering 40 through 6 meters,
the UrbanBeam solves a lot of problems for the urban or suburban ham trying
to get an effective HF signal. At under 45 pounds, it’s easy to turn, and
easy to mount on a pole or roof. �

“It’s a great 20m-6m Yagi, and on 30m and 40m provides performance close to
a dipole, but in a smaller space. Because it’s a SteppIR, it’s elements are
tunable to your operating frequency, which radiates as much of your signal
as possible.

Because it doesn’t look like a conventional antenna, it can be deployed in
‘difficult’ situations. I’ve been using this antenna to work DX from my
suburban neighborhood for the last seven years, and no neighbor has even
asked what it was. This antenna is too good not to share.�

“When Mike first told me about the UrbanBeam, I said ‘send me the first
one’� enthuses Martti Lane, OH2BH, DXer extraordinaire and Ham Radio
Raconteur.

“Small can be beautiful as DX operators want to travel compact and light –
yet producing enough signal on each major band to reach every household the
world over! Our recent EA8BH pending regional win in the ARRL DX SSB
Contest was accomplished with a SteppIR. To win, you need to be loud!�

The special introductory price for the UrbanBeam is $1769, including
shipping to addresses in the continental US. Detailed specifications and
ordering information are available on the SteppIR website: www.steppir.com.

Those attending the International DX Convention in Visalia, California, can
see and try one as part of a special event station April 20-22. Hamvention
attendees can also see one up close at the SteppIR booth: Building 1,
1501-1502,1601-1602.
