The Comet 5-Band, 1/2 Wave Rotatable Dipole is an innovative antenna designed for amateur radio enthusiasts seeking a compact, lightweight solution for multiple bands. This versatile antenna supports the 40, 20, 15, 10, and 6-meter bands, allowing for independent tuning on each frequency. Its ability to be configured in a horizontal, "V" shape or ground-plane setup makes it adaptable to various installation environments, particularly where space is limited.

Engineered with operators' needs in mind, the CHV-5X is ideal for those facing antenna restrictions or wishing to minimize visual impact. Its lightweight design, weighing approximately 5 lbs 14 oz, makes it suitable for portable operations or emergency communications. With a maximum power rating of 150W for the 40 and 20-meter bands and 220W for the higher bands, this antenna provides robust performance without compromising convenience.

Technical specifications highlight the CHV-5X's capabilities, including a typical 1.5:1 or less SWR bandwidth across all bands, ensuring efficient signal transmission. The antenna requires a mounting mast of 1"-2.5" and features a 50-ohm impedance with an SO-239 connector. With a horizontal length of approximately 13 feet, the Comet 5-Band Dipole is an excellent choice for casual operators and serious enthusiasts looking for a reliable, unobtrusive multi-band solution.
