MFJ-1775 6-Band Rotatable Mini-Dipole
Introduction
The MFJ-1775 is a mini 14-foot rotatable dipole that is almost invisible from across the street. With its
tiny 7-foot turning radius, it fits on the smallest roof and is perfect for town houses, apartments and
condos. If necessary, it can even be mounted inside an attic!
The MFJ-1775 is inconspicuous and low profile -- not much bigger than a TV antenna, and can easily be
turned by a lightweight TV rotator such as the Hy-Gain AR-35.
And this antenna is no wimp! Its bi-directional pattern can help reduce QRM/noise while maximizing
your signal in the directions that you want -- so you can work some real DX. You can operate 6 bands -40, 20, 15, 10, 6 and 2 meters -- and run up to a full 1500 Watts SSB on all HF bands.
The MFJ-1775 features automatic band switching, and uses highly efficient end-loading with its entire
length always radiating. With 6 and 2 Meters thrown-in, you have ham radio’s most versatile rotatable
dipole!
TM
Each HF band uses separate, efficient end-loading coils wound on fiberglass forms with Teflon
and capacitance hats (no lossy traps). 6 and 2 meters are full-length half-wave dipoles.
wire,
The MFJ-1775 is built-to-last – using an incredibly strong, solid fiberglass rod center insulator and 6063
T-6 aircraft strength aluminum tubing for the radiator. And it assembles in an afternoon.
WARNING: Improper installation and assembly can be hazardous! Read these instructions
thoroughly before attempting to assemble, install or operate this product! High power transmitting
devices produce voltages that can cause severe burns or other injuries.
SPECIFICATIONS
The small size of the MFJ-1775 is accomplished by adding separate loading coils and capacitance hats at
each end of the antenna for the HF bands. The efficient end-loading coils are wound on fiberglass forms.
The six and two meter amateur bands are covered with the addition of four quarter-wave decoupling
stubs.

CHOOSING A LOCATION FOR THE ANTENNA
For best performance on receiving and transmitting, mount the antenna in a clear location above or away
from buildings, towers, feedlines, utility wires, and other antennas. While your own ingenuity and
particular circumstances will determine the final mounting method, we'll pass along a few ideas for both
permanent installation and portable operation.
• Never mount this antenna in a location that will permit unsuspecting people to come in contact with
the loading spokes or any other part of the antenna.
• Never mount this antenna where a mechanical failure might allow the antenna to contact power lines
or other utility wires.
• Always ground the feedline at the point where it enters a building to a good earth ground for
lightning protection.
WARNING: Always mount this antenna so that it is out of the reach of adults and children.
The capacitance elements can cause injury and/or severe RF burns.
Permanent Installation
The ideal installation is a rigid pole or roof mount that puts the antenna completely in the clear. If the
ideal installation is not possible, choose the best compromise. TV mast, heavy-duty rigid electrical
conduit, and steel water pipes are suitable mast materials. This antenna will mount on masts between 1
and 1-1/2" OD. The use of soft or thin wall masts is not recommended
Portable Operation
The MFJ-1775 may be disassembled as necessary for transporting to a temporary location. Ideally, just
remove the two HF loading coil assemblies leaving the two main elements and 2- & 6-meter stub
assemblies intact. Some retuning may be required after moving the antenna.
Even for temporary or portable operation, do not be casual about selecting a suitable mast. If the antenna
falls, it will be damaged and may cause serious injury. Whatever type of installation you choose,
remember that the antenna should be installed where it can never be contacted by people or animals or
come in contact with power lines.

TOOLS AND TIME REQUIRED FOR ASSEMBLY
The estimated assembly time is two hours. Antenna assembly requires the following hand tools:
• #2 Phillips screwdriver
• 5/16" nut driver for #6 nuts and hose clamps.
• Small (4”-6”) adjustable wrench OR
o 3/8" wrench for 6 and 2 meter stub nuts
o Two 7/16" open-end wrenches (or wrench and nut driver) for U-bolts and
center insulator bolts.
• Heavy wire cutters for trimming capacitance spokes
• Pliers for holding the spoke ends as they are trimmed
• Safety glasses.
You also need two stable supports at least 30" tall (saw horses, trash cans, etc) during assembly, and a
short (6-8') temporary mast (1 to 1-1/2" OD) for temporary mounting during tuning.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
WARNING! You can be killed if the antenna, feedline, or the equipment used to install the
antenna accidentally contacts any utility lines. Never install an antenna near power lines!
1. Be careful while climbing and carrying the antenna. It is heavy enough to cause you to lose your
balance if it is handled too casually or if the capacitance spokes are snagged on a gutter, ladder, tree
limbs, etc.
2. Mount the antenna high enough so that it is out of reach. The ends of the capacitance spokes can
cause eye injury, serious RF burns or both.
3. Make sure that the mast is sturdy enough to support the 15 pound weight and the wind loading of
approximately 2 square feet.
ASSEMBLY and INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Refer to the figures in this manual during assembly. Assembly consists of putting together the
balun/center insulator assembly, then connecting the aluminum radiating elements to the balun/center
insulator assembly. Next the 6- and 2-meter stub elements are installed. Finally the loading coil
assemblies are assembled and installed on the aluminum radiating elements.
The 6- and 2-meter stubs are not required if you have no interest in operating on these bands. HF band
operation will not be affected if the 6- and 2-meter stubs are not present.
After the antenna is assembled and adjusted for resonant frequency and SWR, it can then be mounted on a
tower or rooftop and given final adjustments.
WARNING: Wear safety glasses whenever working with this antenna.

Step-By-Step Procedure
1) Set up saw horses or other stable supports (plastic trash cans, chairs, folding tables, etc.) to support
the antenna during assembly.
2) Prepare a temporary 6-8’ ground-level mounting mast for easy initial testing and adjustment.
3) Sort the antenna parts into groups of similar parts. Be sure all parts are available.
4) After examining the antenna parts, gather the following tools needed for assembly:
• #2 Phillips screwdriver
• 5/16" nut driver for #6 nuts and hose clamps.
• Small (4”-6”) adjustable wrench OR
o 3/8" wrench for 6 and 2 meter stub nuts
o Two 7/16" open-end wrenches (or wrench and nut driver) for U-bolts and
center insulator bolts.
• Heavy wire cutters for trimming capacitance spokes
• Pliers for holding the spoke ends as they are trimmed
• Safety glasses.
5) Assemble the four small "L" brackets to the four long fiberglass insulators with 6-32 x 3/8" screws
(3 each) and the 6-32 kep nuts (3 each) as shown in Figure 1.

9) Using eight hose clamps (four on each radiator), clamp the fiberglass insulators so as to support
the 16” and 55” threaded rods. Position the insulators as shown in Figure 4.
10) Mount the four stubs by threading a 10-32 x 3/8" nut 1/2" near the end of the threads. Add a
second nut and lock-washer to sandwich the bracket between the two nuts, leaving no more than
¼” of threaded rod exposed beyond the aluminum bracket. See Figure 4.
IMPORTANT: Use a 5/16” nut driver to tighten the capacitance spokes in place. Tighten
by hand only. A high torque electric screwdriver will shear the screws.

MFJ-1775 Rotatable Mini-Dipole Instruction Manual
11) Install the 6-32 screws in all rings of both loading coil assemblies, loosely holding them in place with
their associated nuts. Position the screws so the threaded ends of the screws are pointed outward
towards the two ends of each loading coil assembly as shown in Figure 5. .
NOTE: You can ease your tuning effort by pre-marking the outer ends of the spokes prior
to installation. You can do this by placing 1”, 2”, and 3” marks on one end of each
spoke using a black permanent marker pen. Then subdivide these marked
sections into ¼” segments using a red permanent marker pen.
NOTE: Install the spokes through the rings until they come in contact with the fiberglass
rod. This will give you about 1/4” of spoke available to slide back out should you
trim too much off a spoke during tuning.
12) Install four short spokes in the 20-meter rings of both loading coil assemblies. With a 5/16” nut
driver, tighten the nuts until the spokes are snug.
13) Install four short spokes in the 15-meter rings of both loading coil assemblies. With a 5/16” nut
driver, tighten the nuts until the spokes are snug.
14) Install four short spokes in the 10-eter rings of both loading coil assemblies. With a 5/16” nut driver,
tighten the nuts until the spokes are snug.
15) Install four medium (see note below) spokes in the 40 meter rings of both loading coil assemblies.
With a 5/16” nut driver, tighten the nuts until the spokes are snug.
Note: One or two of the 40 meter medium spokes on one loading coil only may need to be
replaced with long spokes, depending on the desired 40 meter operating frequency. See
the 40 meter tuning instructions below.

16) Loosen the mounting screw indicated in Figure 5 so that the aluminum radiator can be slid under the
aluminum tab. Slide the aluminum radiator tube until it contacts the mounting screw that was just
loosened. Tighten the mounting screw. Do not over-tighten this screw or you may BREAK the
fiberglass form. Slide the last hose clamp over the tab and tighten the hose clamp to firmly attach
the loading assembly to the aluminum radiator.
17) Double check the tightness of all the hardware you installed and then mount the antenna on the short
temporary tuning mast 6-8 feet above the ground.
18) Tune the antenna as discussed in the next section.
19) Mount the antenna in the final location. Slight re-tuning may be necessary.
FREQUENCY AND SWR ADJUSTMENT
An SWR analyzer such as the MFJ-259B or equivalent is highly recommended when tuning the MFJ-
1775. While a transceiver and SWR meter can be used, an SWR analyzer will significantly decrease the
time and effort necessary to tune the antenna.
The MFJ-1775 covers wider frequency ranges on the higher bands, and narrower segments on the lower
frequency bands. The 40 meter band has the narrowest range of operation (approximately 40 KHz) and is
the most sensitive to adjustments.
The entire antenna must be accessible during initial coarse tuning and testing. Any repair or adjustment
to the antenna after it is installed on a tall support will make adjustments difficult and time consuming. It
is best to install the antenna on a short temporary mast or pipe that is located in a reasonably clear
location for tuning. The antenna should be mounted horizontally 6-8 feet above ground to make tests and
adjustments easy.
During tuning, feed the antenna with a reasonably short length of good quality 50 ohm coaxial cable to
ensure proper results. If using a transceiver and SWR meter, set the transceiver to the lowest power
possible when making measurements.
The normal resonant frequency of this antenna is at or just below the bottom of each amateur
band. This allows the user to "trim" a small amount off the capacitance spokes to raise the resonant
frequency. Conversely, adding a longer capacitance spoke will lower the resonant frequency of a loading
assembly. Spare spokes are included in case you need to lower the resonant frequency of the antenna.
CAUTION: Always start tuning on 40 meters and adjust each band progressively higher in
frequency. Adjustment of a lower frequency band will always have the most effect on the next higher
frequency band. The tendency of the interaction is that if you move one band higher ALL the other bands
move higher, but only very slightly. It is always best to "shoot for" the lowest end of the range you
intend to use and "trim in" by adjusting the outermost (40 meter) loading coil assemblies after the antenna
is in its final location.
NOTE: When you tune the antenna at a height of 6-8 feet, you will find that the resonant
40 meter
frequency will shift up in frequency 30-50 kHz when the antenna is
8
MFJ-1775 Rotatable Mini-Dipole Instruction Manual
raised to the final height. However, when the plastic end caps are installed on the
ends of the spokes, the resonant frequency on all bands is lowered 30-50 kHz
Tuning the Antenna
1) Measure and record the frequency of lowest SWR for each band. The lowest SWR should be at or
below the bottom end of each HF band. The SWR should be below 2:1 at resonance on each band.
The following is a typical chart for initial measurements of a new antenna before tuning:
40 M 1.7:1 at 6.99 MHz 10 M 1.7:1 at 27.97 MHz
20 M 1.2:1 at 13.9 MHz 6 M 1.2:1 at 50 MHz
15 M 1.2:1 at 20.85 MHz 2 M 2.0:1 at 146 MHz
If you are using a transceiver and SWR meter, the initial resonant frequency may be lower than you can
measure. If so, remove one spoke from each loading coil assembly to raise the resonant frequency.
Measure this resonant frequency and calculate the approximate resonant frequency as if the spokes were
in place using the chart on the next page.
WARNING: You will be trimming the outer ends of the spokes. The sharp sends can cause
a hazard until they are covered with the plastic caps. Therefore it is VERY IMPORTANT
to wear safety glasses when trimming the spokes, or when working near the antenna.
CAUTION: Use a pair of pliers to hold the outer piece of each spoke that is to be cut off so
as to keep the cut piece from flying off and causing injury.
The following tips will help you obtain a better SWR on 40 meters than the tuning method used on other
bands. On 40 meters the lowest SWR is usually not obtained with left and right loading spokes adjusted
to the same frequency.
Low End of 40 Meters: If you desire operation below 7.1 MHz, the lowest SWR will be obtained by
adding two long spokes to ONLY ONE
spokes on opposite sides of the coils. Medium 40 meter spokes from both coils can then be trimmed
equal amounts to resonate the antenna. This will leave one loading coil assembly with two spokes that
are longer than those on the other loading coil assembly.
High End of 40 Meters: If you desire operation above 7.2 MHz the lowest SWR will be obtained by
trimming the spokes on one of the loading coils only until the antenna is resonant approximately 15 KHz
below the operating frequency.
Middle of 40 Meters: For operation between 7.1 and 7.2 MHz, add ONE long spoke to one of the
loading coil assemblies only.
2) Begin tuning by trimming one 40 meter spoke from each end of the antenna by cutting off small,
equal sections from the end of the spoke until the antenna resonates approximately 15 KHz below the
desired operating frequency. Use the chart below to approximate the amount of spoke to be trimmed.
Trimming only one spoke from the top or bottom results in half the frequency change.
40 M: 1" trimmed off a pair of spokes equals approximately 25 KHz
of the 40 meter loading coil assemblies. It is best to add the
9
MFJ-1775 Rotatable Mini-Dipole Instruction Manual
20 M: 1" trimmed off a pair of spokes equals approximately 100 KHz
15 M: 1" trimmed off a pair of spokes equals approximately 175 KHz
10 M: 1" trimmed off a pair of spokes equals approximately 250 KHz
Note: Typical final spoke lengths for the low end of each HF band are shown in the table on the next
page.
3) If the SWR is acceptable at the desired operating frequency, the adjustment for that band may be
skipped.
4) Now tune progressively higher frequency bands by trimming pairs of spokes on each of the two
loading coil assemblies. Keep each pair of capacitance spokes equal in size. 20 meters must be the
second HF band adjusted, 15 meters the third, and 10 meters last. After adjusting 10 meters go back
and check the other bands. Re-check the tightness of all spoke screws.
5) The six and two meter bands are tuned by lengthening or shortening the threaded portion of the stubs.
This adjustment is very coarse. If the frequency is still too low with the stub element extension at a
minimum, the unthreaded ends of the stubs can be trimmed. Once again the lower frequency stub (6
meters) should be adjusted first.
NOTE: The six meter stub covers from 50 to 54 MHz as it is adjusted. Be careful because the third
harmonic resonance of the six meter stub will show up as a low SWR on the third harmonic of it's
setting, usually between 150 and 160 MHz. The range of the two meter stub allows frequencies as
low as 130 MHz to be covered with the stub fully extended and 148 MHz with the stub fully
contracted.
NOTE: The 2-meter resonance is affected by other resonances in the overall antenna structure. You
may find a fixed resonance close to the 2-meter band that has a very low SWR, but the resonant
frequency of this resonance will not be adjustable. Ignore this point and look for a higher SWR
resonance that is adjustable. Typically, you may find a fixed, low SWR resonance at 144 MHz, and
an adjustable resonance at 147 MHz with a 2:1 SWR. This higher frequency, higher SWR resonance
is the desired resonance point. Note that between these two resonant points, the SWR should be 2:1
or less across most of the 2-meter band.
6) Final frequency adjustments can be made by trimming spokes on one of the loading coil assemblies
only if desired, though symmetrical trimming is preferred. The minor adjustment of one side only
without the symmetrical trimming of the other side is perfectly acceptable so long as the frequency is
changed less than 30 KHz on 40 meters and 60 KHz on the higher bands during final adjustment.
Moving the resonant frequency too far with only the spokes on one loading coil assembly will
increase the SWR of the antenna at the resonant frequency.
NOTE: The spokes can also be bent toward another spoke in the same mounting ring to raise the
frequency slightly without cutting.
7) When all tuning is complete, install the plastic end caps on the outer ends of all spokes. Note that the
plastic end caps will lower the resonant frequency on all HF bands by 30-50 kHz. The plastic end
caps should fit snugly on the spokes. Should a cap fit too loosely, add a drop of glue to the spoke
end before sliding on the cap.

remaining six 40 meter spokes.
• 20 Meters: 12-1/4” length for all eight spokes.
• 15 meters: 12-1/4” length for all eight spokes.
• 10 meters: 10.5” length for all eight spokes.
TYPICAL 6- AND 2-METER STUB LENGTHS
• 50.150 MHz: 54 inches (flat side of aluminum mounting bracket to end of stub)
o Note: A fixed non-tunable resonance will also be seen at approximately 43 MHz, and a
tunable higher frequency resonance will be seen at approximately 52 MHz.
• 147 MHz: 13.5 inches (flat side of aluminum mounting bracket to end of stub)
o Note: A fixed non-tunable resonance may also be seen at approximately 144 MHz.
GROUNDING CONSIDERATIONS
Although this antenna is designed to operate efficiently without the requirement of an earth ground, safety
grounding must still be provided to protect equipment, property and persons from the hazards of lighting
strikes and other weather related electrical discharges. In addition, the coaxial cable feeding the antenna
should have the shield grounded to eliminate the risk of any indoor equipment failure allowing hazardous
voltages that could create a shock hazard.
Adequate protection can be accomplished by grounding the shield of the coax to a good earth ground
where it enters the building, or directly burying the cable in the earth for several feet before it enters the
building. For maximum lightning protection, the coaxial cable should be totally disconnected from the
station during threatening weather conditions.
A less effective method of protecting station equipment is to install an in-line coaxial lightning arrestor
with a heavy duty ground wire to a suitable earth ground, or a safety switching system as part of the basic
ham station equipment.
MAINTENANCE
Your antenna is constructed of heavy-duty non-corrosive materials and should withstand normal climates
for many years. The use of some type of coaxial connector moisture protection is recommended at the
balun coax connection, and also around the center-feed connections, especially in coastal areas where
salty mist is commonplace.
GE makes a pure, silicone grease called "SILICONE DIALECTRIC COMPOUND" that can be applied
SPARINGLY to the threaded area of the female connector. This compound, or even a clear silicone
heatsink compound, will prevent moisture from entering the connector through the threads and protect the
connectors from corrosion. This is the same type of sealer that commercial antenna installers and CATV
companies use with great success.
11
MFJ-1775 Rotatable Mini-Dipole Instruction Manual
Plast-DipTM and Liquid Electrical TapeTM, available at your local hardware store, also do an excellent job
of insulating/waterproofing connectors, and can be easily peeled off when desired.
A less desirable, but still adequate sealer is the automobile seam sealer commonly sold as "coax seal".
This is a semi-pliable black or white sealing compound.
When installing any "coax seal", NEVER completely cover the barrel of the coax connector. The sealer
should ONLY be placed near the junction of the threaded part of the chassis connector and the knurled
area of the male connector. This will leave the bottom of the male outer sleeve open and permit the
connector to "breathe" so it does NOT collect moisture!
