MV7 - The vertical excellence from Grazioli Antenne: Every ham radio operator's dream! ?
The MV7 is not just an antenna; it's a demonstration of Italian passion and engineering. A multiband 1/4 λ Ground Plane vertical, base-fed, designed by Grazioli for those who demand the best from HF and VHF bands. With full coverage on 40, 20, 17, 15, 12, 10, and 6 meters, the MV7 is the ally you've been looking for in your ham radio adventures! 🚀
Built to last, designed to win 💪
We're serious about quality. We've used only the best, because we know your passion deserves top-notch equipment.
The MV7 is built with the strongest aluminum alloy: AW6063-T66. This tempered, cold-drawn material makes the antenna incredibly robust and reliable, ready to brave the elements.
Structure: The central element has a diameter of 42x2mm at the base, tapering to 19x1.25mm at the tip, a design that combines solidity and aerodynamics.
Stainless steel hardware: All hardware is made of AISI-304 and AISI-316 stainless steel. No rust, no compromises.
Guaranteed resistance: With a weight of only 8.5 Kg and a height of almost 9 meters, it's a lightweight giant that can handle power up to 3 kW!
Innovation and Italian genius: the choices that make a difference 💡
Grazioli has revolutionized the concept of a vertical antenna. The MV7 does not use impedance transformers, because efficiency must be 100%. This is thanks to the resonant elements parallel to the main radiating element, an ingenious solution that ensures excellent performance.
DBFC System: A true stroke of genius, a Grazioli patent! The Dual Band Folded Counterpoise system creates an electrical counterpoise for 40 meters without cumbersome wire radials. More performance, less bulk.
Competition-grade connector: The UHF connector is designed and manufactured in-house by Grazioli. 24K gold-plated, it guarantees perfect 50 Ohm impedance and withstands incredible power, up to 5kW CW.
Choke for your shack: You'll receive a free original FAIR-RITE FT240-43 ferrite core. Build your own choke and get rid of common-mode currents that ruin your signal.
