 Model AC6-127 117-137 MHz 6 dBi Gain 
 

HIGH GAIN AVIATION BAND ANTENNA

Design Features: AC6-127 Fiberglass Omni-directional Collinear Antenna is VHF aviation band, rugged all weather model uses high class brass and aluminum alloy and does not require any field tuning or adjustments. The aviation fiberglass collinear antenna is highly suitable for ATC sites where longer and extended range of communication is required. All junctions of aviation band collinear antenna are fully welded to prevent RF inter-modulation and antenna is completely protected within a high-tech ruggedized radome to ensure survivability in the worst environments. The compact size of aviation band fiber glass collinear antenna allows easy handling and shipping.

Constructions: The AC6-127 is a center fed design which eliminates the distortion of the radiation pattern and ensures a true omni-directional horizontal pattern. The special stub matching is used for smooth VSWR and constant gain over the specified frequency band. The aviation collinear antenna consist of large diameter brass radiating elements stacked vertically, fed in phase and enclosed in fiber glass tube. The aero band collinear antenna termination is enclosed at bottom of the antenna for complete weather protection. The marine grade stainless steel mounting hardware is supplied with the antenna.
