New Ham Radio Products at DX Engineering - March 2026 Roundup

Just saw DX Engineering released several new amateur radio products for March 2026, including the latest repeater directory and some new test equipment. The ARRL Repeater Directory 2026 Edition is now powered by RepeaterBook with over 22,000 listings covering FM repeaters and digital systems like System Fusion, D-STAR, DMR, NXDN, M17, and P25.

Also noticed they've been releasing 15 new products monthly since their 25th anniversary year including some interesting portable antenna accessories. Anyone picked up any of their recent releases? How's the build quality compared to previous years?

Grabbed the new repeater directory - the RepeaterBook integration is a huge improvement! Much more accurate than previous editions and the digital mode coverage is comprehensive. Also eyeing that Comet HFJ Mini Tripod for portable ops - looks perfect for POTA activations at 6.6 pound capacity.

The monthly product releases have been impressive. Those Nifty Accessories Mini-Manual guides are brilliant - same info as the owner's manual but in concise, plain language with clear illustrations. Perfect for field reference when you can't remember all the menu settings on complex rigs.

DX Engineering's quality has always been solid in my experience. Been using their grounding and bonding products for years. Their new Shack Grounding Package looks comprehensive with coax surge protector, ground bus, RF ground plane kit, and all the copper assemblies. Good timing with storm season approaching - lightning protection is no joke!
