Video: Wirewinders from SOTABEAMS

I have spent years searching for the ideal way of winding up antenna wire for use in the field. These special winders are just about perfect! Lightweight and with an elastic fastener to secure the wire, they are quick and easy to use.

Wire winders ensure tangle-free aerials and rapid deployment - perfect! Great for SOTA, caravanning and DXpeditions!

Use a figure-of-eight winding technique which helps to ensure no kinks in the wire.

We recommend three winders for a dipole fed with RG174 (one for each half of the dipole and one for the co-ax and back guy). Two winders are usually adequate for a dipole fed with RG58 (cable coiled separately).

Each winder weighs 1.25 oz (36g). Length 24.5 cm (9.75 inches).

Recommended Accessory

If you are making antennas using our Wirewinders, consider investing in one of our rugged antenna bags - designed for use with Wirewinders.

    Wire winders

    Posted by Ian Northeast on 26th Dec 2012

    Very good product I can fit 3 of them in my SOTA pack 2 have my par end fed antennas and 1 has all my antenna support strings. with par end feds if you put the coax so239 through a hole in the winder then screw a pl259 threaded ring on the "magic box" it stays in place then you wind on the antenna wire after. very snug . 73 de ian vk5cz ..

    Wonderful Wire Winders

    Posted by Garry VK2GAZ on 4th Dec 2012

    These are very nifty little bits of kit, they keep all my dipole leads, cables and guide lines neat and tidy ready for use. Dealing with SOTAbeams has been easy and straight forward. Thank you, Garry VK2GAZ

    Tough & Agile? Yes

    Posted by Etienne, K7ATN on 2nd Dec 2012

    Seems like a strange description for a plastic part, but I've broken my share of polystyrene kite winders - these from SOTABeam are tough - I can sit on them! And agile too, they make quick work of deploying my antenna and easy to put it up when I'm done. The built-in bungee to hold it all together is brilliant. Thanks SOTABeams!
