| 148-174 MHz : Helically Wound Whip with 5/16"-26 TPI Thread |
M99RT148 is a helically wound whip for the frequency range 148 to 174 MHz. This helical design is most useful in circumstances where reduced height is essential. |
The rugged copper plated steel construction will withstand rough treatment.
The mount ferrule has a 5/16”-26 TPI Female thread. |
Since this stubby antenna will be used on radios, bases and ground planes unknown to us, it is supplied uncut. Clients will therefore require the services of a technician with suitable SWR equipment to ascertain the correct trim length according to the frequency required. |
