The xOTA-Antenna PCB Kit is a versatile solution for building end-fed antennas, suitable for SOTA (Summits On The Air), POTA (Parks On The Air), and various portable operations. It supports end-fed antennas like EFHW (End-Fed Half-Wave) and random wire configurations.

The xOTA-Antenna PCB Kit was developed to meet the needs of amateur radio enthusiasts seeking a convenient and customizable solution for their portable antenna setups. It addresses the challenges faced by operators in deploying efficient antennas for activities like SOTA, POTA, and other portable operations. By providing a comprehensive kit with all necessary components, we aim to empower users to build high-performance end-fed antennas tailored to their specific requirements.

What sets the xOTA-Antenna PCB Kit apart is its flexibility and physical performance. The kit allows users to build end-fed antennas tailored to their specific requirements, whether it's for QRP (low-power) operations or higher power levels up to 100W SSB/CW. With options for various toroid types and power ratings, along with compatibility with different UnUn windings, users can optimize their antenna setups for maximum efficiency and effectiveness. Additionally, the included PCB and components offer a durable and professional-grade solution, ensuring reliable performance even in challenging outdoor environments.

**Unless you have specified a built and tested kit option, you will receive:

• PCB

• Toroid: Choose one from the following options:

• FT140-43,(100w) or FT82-43, (10w)

• Quality Molex BNC Socket

• 100pF 1kV Ceramic Capacitor

• 0.63mm or 1mm Enamel wire, (10w100w version)

• 4mm Banana Sockets (used for the antenna and ground radial connections).

• Shrink Tube

• Wire of your chosen length, (or none).**

The xOTA-Antenna PCB Kit is based on the original work by DG1JAN, who generously shares their expertise and design on GitHub, accessible through the link below. We want to acknowledge DG1JAN's contribution and assure you that all intellectual property rights belong to them. This kit simplifies the process of acquiring the necessary components and PCB, eliminating the hassle of sourcing materials and manufacturing the board yourself. However, if you prefer, you can still source all the individual components yourself. It's a convenient solution for amateur radio enthusiasts who appreciate the value of DG1JAN's design but prefer the ease of assembling a kit. Explore the GitHub repository for more details on the original project, and enjoy the convenience of building your own xOTA-Antenna with this comprehensive kit.
