Mosquito End Fed 1:49 – small and light

After the Mini-End Fed was so well accepted, we looked at how we could make the whole thing even smaller, more compact but robust. The main focus here was on weight. The result is the Moskito End Fed.

Mosquito?

Yes, because it is so tiny and light. The cylindrical housing with a height of only 70mm and a diameter of 25mm weighs just 50 grams. This makes the Moskito easy to stow in your pocket or backpack. The maximum output is 50 watts SSB PEP. It is available in 1:49 and 1:9. This makes the Moskito End Fed antenna ideal for portable use when traveling, QRP, COTA, POTA, IOTA, SOTA (Summit on the Air) or DX expeditions etc. The Moskito End Fed is suitable for the new generation of small multiband/multimode QRP transceivers such as the Icom IC-705, Xiegu G90 or X6100, LAB 599 TX500 or the Yaesu FT-817/818.

Super light antenna wire

To match the lightweight Moskito End Fed, we offer the new, super lightweight and high-strength antenna wire SL as an option. This antenna wire is only 1.6mm thick, weighs 4g per meter and consists of 6×0.25mm tinned copper wires. The stranded wire has a core made of tear-resistant Vectran fibers® and a weatherproof PE insulation. This achieves a maximum breaking load of up to 60kg!

If you attach the antenna to the top of a telescopic mast and slide out the mast segments, you can be on air within a few minutes! To attach the housing of the 1:9 transformer to a mast, the mini insulator and a carabiner are all you need.

Counter-poise

If a counter-poise is required, you can connect a short piece of wire/strand with a length of 0.05 λ to the side connection of the mosquito antenna. The counter-poise should hang down freely.

Coax cable with integrated RFI choke
This pre-assembled coaxial cable with integrated RFI choke for End Fed antennas is ready for immediate use. Thanks to its design based on the W2DU principle, the common mode choke is extremely broadband and low-loss. It effectively prevents the shielding of the coaxial cable from becoming part of the antenna system and radiating unintentionally. It therefore provides effective protection against unwanted RF interference. It also serves to adapt the unbalanced coaxial cable to balanced antennas and can therefore also be used as a “1:1” balun. A variety of highly permeable ferrites are threaded onto lightweight HF-195 FX-ZH low-loss coaxial cable, shrink-wrapped and assembled with connectors as required. The integrated RFI choke (common mode choke) is installed at the end of the cable after 2.10m for the 10-40m bands or after 4.20m for the 10-80m bands. We offer lengths of 10, 15 and 20m. Other lengths can be produced on request. The lightweight coaxial cable with integrated RFI choke (common mode choke) is also ideal for portable use when traveling, QRP, COTA, POTA, IOTA, SOTA (Summit on the Air) or DX expeditions. 50 Ohm HF195 FX-ZH coaxial cableReady for immediate usefor 10-40m or 10-80m bandPlug and PlayChoice of cable lengthConnector of your choicePower limit Max: 250W PEP SSB Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
