Solid state means solid performance.
Solid-state coupling box technology ensures unparalleled
electrical and mechanical performance. The insert-molded brass
matching network has no moving parts or solder connections to
fail inside. Pre-tuning provides right-out-of-the-box use.
Installation time is reduced while signal quality rises. The one-
weld design decreases noise potential and increases reliability.
The patented counterpoise design minimizes unwanted signal
radiated from the coax cable, cutting risk of on-board computer
interference. Best of all, the coupling box is only 1/2 inch thick!
