2019 New bottom Flange, Air Coaxial Centre-Post and Hub assembly - G3TXQ Hexbeam by MW0JZE

Brief video of how to assemble the new style coaxial centre-post and light weight hub. Centre-post is made from 35mm OD aluminium tubing as the outer conductor with a 12.7mm sold aluminium rod inside as the centre conductor. New flanges are the aluminium type. When the hub arrives you will need to attach the bottom flange, this clip will take you through the whole process including tips on how to mount the antenna.
The new bottom flange gives you more choice in selecting the correct OD stub, Max 2 Inch / 50mm minimum 1.5 Inch / 40mm. I suggest a minimum wall thickness of 2.5mm for safety purposes.

Looks really nice and may have helped with mine as I had an Ally mast which was not really man enough, but I just got a steel mast in addition and that takes the weight fine, but the Hexbeam is the best antenna I have ever used!
