Description
Multiband cobweb antenna works on 6 HF bands and up to 1000w/800w SSB
Bands are 14, 18, 21, 24, 28, 50 MHz
This antenna has sides of the square 2.65 x 2.65 m, and is very useful where space is limited.
This antenna works well as an antenna for your base but equally well as portable for holidays and field work due to it’s folding boom arms.
It’s unique design allows this antenna to be quickly and easily set up within a few minutes.
It’s design is very strong and robust, and is resistant to strong winds.
The antenna is contructed from glass fibre rods, aluminum, stainless steel and galvanized steel and has a sealed connector box resistant to rain and UV rays to keep the balun and connections from the elements.
The antenna works well on DX and as a QRP station.
It is pre-tuned to different bands at a height of 4 metres above the ground. Raising the antenna above 4m will generally see SWR decrease.
Bandwidth on 6 and 10m may require the use of an ATU to cover more of the band..
This antenna is omni-directionally so you do not need a rotator.
It is made up of folded half-wave dipoles for 14, 18, 21, 24, 28, 50 MHz
Polarisation is horizontal and is naturally resistant to some electrical interference and static.
Large system efficiency to 95%.

I have been using this antenna model for about 2 years, in competitions especially CW and digimode. The success rate was over 98%. The compact design and low weight make it possible to raise it to a high level. He coped with two winters on my block. It’s a discreet antenna that doesn’t attract the attention of neighbors. I highly recommend AWK products. Mike YO3GCL

I use a lot of wire antennas and have a tower but had nothing at the top of the tower and was looking for a general purpose, multi-band, omnidirectional antenna to fill the vacancy up high. My research pointed me in the direction of the Cobweb antenna so I purchased the Cobweb 6 20-6m. This antenna works so good, I found myself not using the wire dipoles and in fact, I took down the 15m and 12m dipoles freeing up space in the yard for other antenna experiments.
I tested the antenna for a week on a lightweight mast at 20’ agl on 17m, 15m, 12m and was surprised with how well it performed at low hight. I then permanently installed the Cobweb on a short mast at the top of the tower around 60 feet above ground level. So far, it has survived some pretty nasty Kansas thunder storms.
The AWK Cobweb is sturdy, well made, has high quality parts. Was shipped in a reasonable size package and very easy to assemble. Very light weight and easy to install. I highly recommend this antenna, especially if you are limited on space and hight. Kevin N0KDZ

Recieved the antenna very quick. By testing on 4,5 m high very bad swr above 2.2 minimum on the 20 m band. By placing a common mode filter near to the feeding point drops the swr down to 1.3!!. Soon will install the antenna on my small Tower on 10 m high.

I live on the Isle of Man and a friend recommended this antenna and so I ordered one. It arrived very well poacked and. It only took 14 days to arrive. The instructions were easy to follow and I will be erecting it on top of my 20m tower.
I find it very well made and strong, I ordered the 1Kw model. I hopw to have it installed next week. Thank you for the excellent quick service.
