Note:
Prices may change without notice due to the ongoing inflation.
Please note that all prices include 10% Australian GST which is not applicable to customers outside of Australia.
As of 5 August 2023, prices are as follows:
ALL ABOUT DX hexagonal beam aka “The Hex”: A$ 1299.
That includes the 20m band, Kevlar (non-stretch) chords, anodised aluminium centre post and StarHub.
Each band, that is 17m, 15m, 12m, 10m and / or 6m are A$50 each.
Additional anodising of the remaining aluminium components such as StarHub spreader tubes or stub mast is possible and recommended to obtain a better corrosion resistance. This is particularly important when living close to the coast. The current costs for the full anodising package are A$159.
The spreaders come unpainted. They have some ‘built-in’ UV stabilisation but we strongly recommend to paint them. We will provide details on which paint to buy and where to you can get it (within VK) so you can do it yourself and save some dollarydoos. Any colour is available that way so you can choose the colour you prefer to either blend in to please the neighbours or XYL or to amaze yourself HIHI. If you wish we can paint the spreaders for you by applying 2 coats of paint with a hand brush. That may lead to longer lead times but can be done for A$199.
(Note: No antenna manufacturer we are aware of will provide you this service and no hexbeam out of the box is suitable for Australian Conditions long term!)
The QRO choke balun is optional (you may already have one or you want to build your own) and is also made in house. The costs are A$175.
We use PTFE (aka Teflon) coax and two high quality Amphenol SO-239. The balun and the Hex can handle full legal power in VK and has been tested with a CW (100% duty cycle) signal of 400W for 60 sec.
All prices include 10% GST. If we ship outside of Australia that 10% Australian GST is not applicable however, local tax and duties may apply (depending on tax and other regulations in your country).
Shipping costs may vary too depending on your location. (Please send us an inquiry via the contact form so we can check what the best option for you is.)
Thank you!
