excellent Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
installed for roof use on a 40 meter top-hatted vertical. it's great to be able to add radial wires as you improve the overall performance...this is a nice plate, and we'll see how it stands up to the wisconsin weather- which is a real test of how soon it begins to rust.

Excellent Quality Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I wanted to rebuild my Hustler 5-BTV after Hurricane Charley. Came across an ad for the DX Engineering radial plate. I placed the order and 2 days later, I received it. Excellent quality and a very professional appearing installation. Most pleased with the product.

Almost too pretty to use! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Very well designed and made. Smooth, polished 304 stainless steel with laser etched company logo looks as sharp as it works. Fits over a 4x4 or 6x6 wood post, or mounts to a pipe with an optional clamp. Bulkhead hole on plate allows the coax shield to be connected directly and cleanly to the radial field. Comes with 20 sets of 1/4-20 bolts, nuts, and washers, enough to get you going. Smooth ordering an delivery too.

Good Value Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
This is one solid radial plate. Constructed of stainless steel and foot square with 60 ¼” holes for radial connection. The basic plate comes with 20 screws so if you plan on additional radials be sure to buy additional screws.

The basic plate does not come with the mounting clamp for attaching to a pipe. Also sold separately is SO-239 hardware. The hole in the middle is large enough to allow bolting to a 4x4 post if needed.

This is a very solid product and good quality. Should you order one just make sure you have explored the options you might need, such as additional hardware, clamp and coax connector.

I had the order in Alaska 3 days after placing the order so company response was prompt.
