The GAP Challenger outperforms them all on 40 and 20 with ease, mounted in almost the exact same location. Reference Antenna: The reference antenna used to compare the GAP Challenger to is a BWD-90 by B&W mounted about 25 feet off the ground, and in a sharp V configuration, not a really good DX antenna, but great for NVIS. 4/14/20 #4019. GAP has proved to be hit or miss on both the web and by e-mail. Your best bet is to call them. (772) 571-9922. 73, Tim, WS4V. toggle quoted message. Show quoted text.

It has been..11 years since I bought my first Challenger DX from GAP antennas. Used it for 3 or 4 years, decided I wanted an antenna that covered 17 meters, sold my Challenger to a friend a few miles away. Went and bought a GAP Titan, had that up for The GAP Titan DX is an unusual antenna, with optimistic claims made by the manufacturer. It is appx. 25 feet high, and split in the middle with an insulator. It is claimed to function as a shortened vertical dipole (or doublet if you prefer), without needing any ground radials. The Titan utilizes a complex arrangement of linear loading/tuning Rating: 2021-04-05. I wouldn't buy another! Time Owned: more than 12 months. This antenna has been a great disappointment as its performance does not meet the manufacturers specifications. Notably the swr on the 15m band is around 7:1; it is also above 2:1 on the 17 and 12m bands. The specification is for an swr below 2:1 on all bands. GAP Titan DX Multiband Vertical Antenna. I had a GAP Titan DX antenna installed on the house for 10 years, took it down to build a garage, and replaced it recently with a new Gap Titan DX. To say the least, I believe most vertical antennas are a compromise to begin with. The Titan DX is probably no different. Rating: 2003-08-10. 160, 80, 40 and 20 meter vertical. Time Owned: more than 12 months. I have had my Voyager IV since 1991 and while it is beat by almost anything on 20 meters, it is a real performer on 80 and 40 meters. Certainly while there are better 160 mtr. antennas, it is without question the best 160 meter that I have ever owned. The Titan DX is installed at the water's edge, as can be seen above. It's mounted about 5′ above ground level. The 40 meters counterpoise aluminum spreaders can be seen toward the very bottom of the antenna. Above that, the various tuning elements for the various bands are gathered around the middle of the antenna.
