The Barrett 2019 is a solid state automatic tuning mobile HF antenna, designed for use with Barrett 2000 series transceivers.
The 2019 provides frequency coverage of 2 MHz to 30 MHz with a rapid tuning time of typically less that 1.5 S.
High radiation efficiency and accurate tuning are assured by maximising the antenna current on every tune. This is unlike most manufacturers that minimise the VSWR. 2019 Automatic tuning mobile HF
The Barrett 2019 antenna activates a wideband amplifier in receive mode to enable channel scanning. Due to its rugged RF design, the Barrett 2019 antenna can also be used with high duty cycle applications such as the Barrett 2020 email, fax and data system and is fully compatible with ALE operation.
An optional GPS receiver can be fitted within the 2019 antenna casing and interfaces directly through the RF control cable to current production 2050 transceivers.
