AM/FM Radio Receive Bull Bar Mount Mobile Antennas : ZN3-AM/FM series
The ZN3-AM/FM series of heavy duty AM/FM radio receive antennas are specifically designed for mounting to the bull bar of a truck, 4WD off-road vehicle or ute. The series consists of 3 models ranging from 1.1 metres up to 2.1 metres tall. Designed and manufactured in Australia by ZCG Scalar, the high quality design is built to last and will deliver the maximum reception range available in a mobile AM/FM car radio antenna.
Models in this range consist of:
ZN3-AM/FM-12 is the largest "super heavy duty" model standing 2.1 metres tall.
ZN3-AM/FM-11 is the shorter "heavy duty" model 1.2 metres tall.
ZN3-AM/FM-10 is a slightly lighter design "medium duty" model 1.1 metres tall.
Individually tuned in the factory to cover both AM and FM radio bands, the antennas are available with either a White or Black fibreglass radome.
Key design features are:
The antenna top is detachable for storage when not required.
The antenna tops can be ordered separately. The large 2.1 metre ZN3-AM/FM-12 antenna top can be removed and substituted with the shorter ZN3-AM/FM-11 top (or vice-versa) whenever appropriate.
A precision machined marine grade aluminium ferrule prevents water and dust ingress giving the antenna a longer service life.
The machined aluminum radome cap stops water and dust ingress into the radome.
For each ZN3 model, there is an identical matching antenna available for 477 MHz UHF CB Radio.
The heavy duty stainless steel barrel spring base bolts into any bracket with a minimium 12.7 mm (½") diameter hole.
5 metres of RG58 low loss stranded cable bottom exits through the mounting base. The cable is not terminated to allow easy installation through vehicle firewalls and dashboards. It is recommended that the cable be cut to the shortest length necessary prior to fitting the car radio connector supplied.
The installation kit supplied with each antenna includes:
3 mm Allen key to remove the antenna top.
PVC cap to cover exposed connector on base whenever the antenna top is removed.
