 Model AWD-118-400 118 - 400 MHz. 2 dBi. Gain 
 

HIGH GAIN AVIATION BAND ANTENNA

Design Features: AWD-118-400 wide band VHF UHF aviation band discone antenna is specially designed for omni-directional coverage. Due to its low VSWR through entire band from 118-400 MHz., this discone antenna can be used as a transmitting and receiving antenna with high efficiency, to meet the broadband requirement of a base station antenna such as spectrum monitoring or jamming application without having the requirement of multiple antennas. The wide band discone antenna when packed, comes with cone and disc elements removed from the antenna body for ease of packing and shipment.

Construction: AWD-118-400 wideband discone antenna is rugged all weather model, does not require any field tuning or adjustments. The compact size of discone antenna allows easy handling and specially designed mounting hardware results in fast installation. The cone and disc hubs of wide band discone antennas are made of 6063T6 ultra corrosion resistant architectural anodized aluminum alloy and all fasteners are of marine grade stainless steel. Discone Antenna termination and feed cable lie enclosed inside the mounting pipe for complete weather protection. The antenna is supplied with Military Olive Green color powder coating finish to protect it further from sever environmental conditions.
