The “TET-Emtron TM” model TE-33 is an optimum performance 3 element HF Beam Antenna. Built with high efficiency traps, all stainless steel hardware and rugged aluminium construction, guarantee a long and trouble-free operation.
As trap type antennas are generally considered narrow banded, the TE-33 gives an SWR of 1.5 or less across the entire operating band, and therefore does not need any re-adjusting for PHONE or CW band.
This antenna is made from Marine Grade 6000 Series Aluminium, all predrilled and partly pre-assembled components – THIS ANTENNA IS MADE TO LAST!
By following the instruction, you will find that the antenna is simple to assemble and when correctly installed, a top performer.

I am a proud owner of a TE33 that I have since upgraded to a TE43 and I cannot provide enough praise for Marks TE33 / 43 design.
It truly is an excellent antenna with great gain and excellent F/B figures that are borne out in the real world.
You won’t buy a better 3 or 4 element tri-bander at any price!
Cliff Coverdale –
I bought a TE43 earlier this year 2010. Previously I was using a well known brand of tri band yagi with mediocre results. The very day I erected the TE43, the bands came alive. I worked stations in Eastern Europe, Britain, the Middle East. It was just incredible how well my yagi worked. I have since ordered a number 3 director, which I will install next week, making it a TE 53 I guess. I’ll write another review on it after I use it for a while. The TE43 is the very best made and operating yagi I’ve ever used. Cliff. VK2CRC

The new TE-33 beats my old well known brand hands-down. Easy to assemble, easy to mount and a very solid build. The improvement on-air was immediately obvious, full marks to Marks service and highly recommended.

Buy one and you will not be disappointed. Can be modified later to add extra elements if needed. Very easy to assemble. Nice addition of a spares pack with extra nuts, bolts, screws. Advice available if required over the phone or email. Premium antenna, First Class service.

I have now been using a second hand TE-33 for 2 years and having excellent results at a height of 10m with 200 watts. In my 43 years of HAM radio I have used the Mosley TA33Jr and Hygain TH3-Jr and for me, the TE-33 comes on top. The additional bonus is Mark is always there to talk to and is very customer centric.
