FEATURES / ADVANTAGES

 

  • This marine VHF antenna is specially designed for mounting on the masthead of sailboats. The dimensions have been kept as small as possible to reduce weight, wind load and cost.
  • Despite the small dimensions, the efficiency is very high and the antenna is fully capable of handling the full 50 W output power of typical marine VHF transmitters.
  • The tapered ½ λ stainless steel radiator, together with the chrome-plated brass housing and stainless steel corner bracket, forms an antenna that can withstand the corrosive environment at the masthead.
  • The end-fed dipole principle makes the antenna independent of ground planes, radials or other auxiliary arrangements.
  • The antenna whip should not be mounted parallel or close to other metal parts, such as Windex, suspension cables, etc. A free and as high as possible mounting is preferable, otherwise the SWR and the radiation pattern will be affected.
