The DX Engineering DXE-8040-30AOK kit adds 30 meter coverage to the DX Engineering 80/40

dual band vertical antenna without giving up any existing band coverage.

This kit will operate across the entire 30 meter band at full legal limit with an SWR of 1.5:1 or less

and adds negligible wind loading to the antenna.

No disassembly of the existing antenna is required.

Simply install this kit, check the tuning (if needed, make some minimal tuning adjustments) and

you're on the air with an additional band.

Included Materials

Pre-assembled 14 ga stranded, tin coated, FLEX-WEAVE™ 30 Meter element wire with

2. To install the four 3/4" carriage bolts into the 30 Meter AOK insulated bracket, use a flat washer

and hex nut. Tighten the nut until the carriage bolt is fully seated on the insulator. Once fully

seated, remove the hex head nut and washer. Install all four carriage bolts from the same side on

the insulator as shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2

3. Install the 30 Meter AOK insulated bracket onto the stainless steel laser cut 30 Meter AOK

mounting arm using two flat washers, split washers and hex nuts as shown in Figure 3.

6. Install one 3/4" carriage bolt into the Hot Rodz™bracket as shown in Figure 6 using one fender

washer, one split washer and one wing nut. Do not tighten.

Figure 6

7. Install the 12" Hot Rodz™into the Hot Rodz™bracket by loosening the wing nut, sliding the

Hot Rodz™in place in the grooved areas. As shown in Figure 7, adjust the Hot Rodz™so you

have each one extending approximately eight inches on either side. Tighten the wing nut. Do not

over tighten. During the tuning, the Hot Rodz™ will be adjusted equally either inward or

outward.

3. The black wire (23.5") has two different sized ring terminals. Take the smaller ring terminal end

and loosely weave the wire through the second hole of end insulator as shown in Figure 13.

Figure 13

4. Assemble the last end insulator as shown in Figure 14 using the Flex-Weave (233") wire, the

black wire (#10 ring terminal end) and the stainless steel hardware Note the hex head bolt has a

recessed area the head fits slightly in during assembly. Note, when putting the stainless steel

spring on, use the Nyloc hex nut only tightened as shown in Figure 14. This allows the spring to

move, but not come off.
