The dikkod JPC-12 is a portable multi-band HF vertical antenna covering 40m through 6m with a slide tuner for quick SWR adjustment. It assembles in minutes and weighs 3 lbs, making it suited to POTA, SOTA, and emergency setups. Compared with hamstick-style single-band whips, it covers eight bands without swapping elements, though it is taller and heavier than ultra-light QRP antennas. Users say the slide tuner makes tuning fast and repeatable, but some note that the 100W SSB rating limits use with high-power rigs.

The JPC-12 is a portable multi-band HF vertical antenna for ham radio operators and outdoor communication. It covers 7 MHz to 50 MHz across 8 bands (40m to 6m), and is suited to portable operation such as POTA, SOTA, camping and emergency communication.
A slide regulator replaces the traditional tuning screws, so SWR can be adjusted quickly without tools. The low-SWR design supports stable performance across all supported bands.
The antenna weighs 1.35 kg (3.0 lbs) and stands about 4.1 m (13.5 ft) tall. One person can assemble it in a few minutes, and it comes with a carry bag.
