KIO Hexbeam
We will not be shipping orders during the holiday season so any orders placed will be held until early January.
This plug and play hexbeam is available for any combination of bands 20, 17, 15, 12, 10 and 6 meters. This is not a box of parts. The main components are already assembled; you just plug them together in an hour and then get on the air and play.
Start with 20 meters. Any beam can be easily expanded now or later by purchase of additional bands.
The price for a single band hexbeam is $516 and for all six bands is $821.
