AV–1 Base Station Antenna
General Description
The AV–1 is a base station antenna for communications with ground vehicles or aircraft. It has heavy–duty construction with 3/8″ diameter aluminum radials, a 1″ diameter aluminum tube radiator, and is iridite–treated for durability. It mounts easily to a 1″ diameter pipe or a 1–1/4″ O.D. tube with locking set screws. A built–in gap–type lighting arrestor is an important design feature. The antenna requires no additional tuning and is designed to withstand windspeeds of up 100 mph.
