Antenna Key Features:
A 6.5dbi antenna with elevated feed, counter balanced spring and solid black fiberglass whip. The counter balanced spring is designed to absorb the vibrations from the engine and/or rough corrugated roads for better performance. This unit include 4.5m of low-loss coaxial cable and a PL259 connector.
This antenna configuration is by far the most popular on the Australian market. Ideal for use in off-road conditions with four-wheel drives, or for vehicles with diesel engines.
This antenna allows for a variety of mounting options from bullbar, gutter to wing mount. A specific bracket will be required depending on the mounting option chosen (bracket not supplied). The 6.5dBi high-gain low SWR antenna gives the best "all-round" transmit and receive performance.
Length including spring and base: 83cm.
The thread size for the whip (not the spring base) is 5/16 UNC.
