TZ-V6j

6m J-pole


The TZ-V6j is a 6m j-pole antenna suitable for use in the amateur 6m band for local and Repeater contacts. The antenna is all aluminium construction apart from mounting hardware and fasteners which are stainless steel. The TZ-6j is a simple design, with strong construction and is ready to install after only element is inserted into another. Clamping style connection is provided to permit fine input impedance adjustment for a very low input VSWR at your desired operating frequency.

The electrical length of the antenna is equivalent to a 5/8th wave design providing a low angle of radiation, so you can hit that far off repeater, or work 6m FM repeaters via sporadic E or F layer Ionospheric propagation paths.

The TZ-V6j 6m J-pole features include:

Operating bands 6m (FM portion of the band)
Max Operating power 1 kW PEP, 250W CW continuous
Bandwidth (2.0:1) 2 MHz
Input Impedance 50 ohm typical
Gain -0.5 to 0 dBd
Effective Gain 3 dBi Typical (when mounted at 1 wavelength height)
VSWR 1.2:1 (typical)
Length 4.5m

The TZ-V6j is supplied with all stainless steel hardware except for the boom/pole mount U bolts (optionally S/S). The antenna is supplied with an SO-259 socket (UHF) input connector, assembly and tuning instructions.
