Air Band Monocone Antennas
Suitable for mounting to lightweight towers, the B55SS monocone covers the entire Air Band 118 to 136 MHz making this the ideal base station antenna for Airports where a variety of channels are used.
With an omnidirectional radiation pattern and integral ground plane, this monocone produces a low angle of radiation making it comparable with a centre fed dipole.
The radome is a high quality UV resistant ABS with stainless steel radials and stainless steel mount tube. This high quality construction ensures reliable performance over a long service life.
The 1 metre RG213 cable tail is terminated with an N-Female connector rated for up to 500 watts input power.
2 x EB1SS stainless steel mast mounting clamps, coaxial feeder cable, connectors and other accessories are all available separately to complete the antenna installation.
Constructed from aluminium, the B55AL monocone is an economical and effective antenna for airport communications.
Using the lower part of the air band for transmit, the sliding radials can be easily field tuned to receive any 8 MHz bandwidth within the frequency range 118 to 136 MHz.
Other key features of this air band monocone antenna are :
- Omnidirectional 360 degree radiation pattern.
- Broad 74 degree vertical beamwidth.
- Rated for up to 200 watts input power.
- Lightweight at just 3.1 kg.
- Low wind loading.
- The radials can be easily removed for transportation.
- Simple to mount to a round mast using 2 parallel clamps.
The 1 metre RG213 cable tail is terminated with an N-Female connector. Mounting clamps, coaxial feeder cable, connectors and other accessories are all available separately to complete the antenna installation.
