  • Notes
  • Short Wave Hikers'

    Here is another addition to the famous 49" family...the short-wave brother of the well-known "Hiker's One" -and we doubt not that it will become as popular. It covers from 18 metres to 150 metres by means of plug-in coils, and all on low battery, power. 

    Coil details are as follows:            Secondary   Tickler

    • 18.40 metres                            5                6
    • 31-80 metres                           10               7
    • 65-150 metres                         20               9

    All coils close wound with gauge 26 DCC wire spaced ⅛in, from each other.
