Description
This 5/8 wave ground independent antenna uses a PL259 solid base section with flexible whip end element. Overall length 35cm.
Gain: 3dBi
SWR <1.5:1 @ 477MHz
Comes with 3.0m of RG316 50 ohm coax, terminated with a SMA-F fitting to suit the Sierras, and a SO239 base mount (to suit the PL259 antenna base) and most mounting brackets intended for this type of base mount. Will also suit the original AUSCB and Uniden UH755/785.
RG316 fits under the car’s rubber door seals much better than RG58 and can be tucked into the door frame edge lining much easier. It is also easier for connecting to handheld radios.
This coax length is intended for forward gutter mounting positions, forward roof rack positions, rear bonnet mount positions or rear engine bay edge positions. Not suitable for bull bar mounting.
Antenna can be removed from base mount when required.
Note that the SMA fitting does not need to be done up tight to the antenna socket, just a gentle stop is all that is required. Always hold the fitting, not the cable.
Please note that a mounting bracket is not included – as these will vary from car to car and mounting position.
