The VCF115-420 (RA23-1469-01) mobile antenna is an omni-directional, vertically polarised, rugged and versatile V/UHF antenna intended for ground-to-air, ground-to-ground, ship-to-shore, marine and general tactical mobile communications in the 115 to 420 MHz range.
The VCF115-420 (RA23-1469-01) mobile antenna is an omni-directional, vertically polarised, rugged and versatile V/UHF centre fed dipole antenna intended for ground-to-air, ground-to-ground, ship-to-shore, marine and general tactical mobile communications in the 115 to 420 MHz range.
Encased in a high strength fibreglass sleeve, the VCF115-420 is robust, impact resistant, and able to withstand the rigorous demands of harsh military and marine environments.
Being centre-fed in design, the VCF115-420 is groundplane independent and therefore ideal on platforms where limited or no groundplane is available, or for mast mounting (Mast adapter required).
The UBS-4 or UBS-6 Universal Mounting Base is ground isolated for use on platforms where electrical isolation is necessary, but may be grounded if required.
Optional internal GPS antenna available.
