Shipboard Muldipol™ Antennas Models D7061-L and D7066-L The Muldipol™ Multiple Collinear Array concept has been specifically developed by TACO for ground-air-ground, air traffic control, and associated land or sea based communication applications. This omni-directional concept employs a unique method of shielding the feed cables to improve radiation pattern characteristics. The Muldipol™ also has a high degree of isolation between discrete elements within a closely spaced array.
