Lightning 6

The Lightning 6 is a 6 element directional base station antenna. The Lightning 6 takes all of the benefits of Signal Engineering's full wave design - and takes performance figures to the maximum with six elements on a wide spaced design! If you desire the performance of our Lightning 6 but space or budget is a problem now, check out the Lightning 4+ - our 4 element beam that you can easily upgrade to 6 elements (making it a Lightning 6) whenever the time is right with our upgrade kit!

The Lightning 6 is a optimized directional quad antenna incorporating all of the most desirable features for superior two-way communications. Six heavy copper wire radiating elements are precisely spaced and mounted on a rugged aluminum and fiberglass frame, forming a high-gain parasitic antenna. Exclusive SFS (Signal Feed System, patented) matching system gives maximum directional performance and dual polarity to allow switching between close (local) and long haul signal paths (DX).
