VHF Frequency Military Antenna

Product catalog summary

Overview
TACO Antenna, a division of Wade Antenna, Inc., specializes in the Muldipol line of VHF & UHF dipole antennas designed for air traffic control, ground-to-air, ground-air-ground, and naval applications. These antennas are known for their rugged construction, transportability, and cost-effectiveness due to their long-term lifecycle and three-year warranty.

Key Features

Multiple output antenna design allows up to three stacked dipoles to operate simultaneously within one radome.
High isolation between antenna elements and a combination of VHF frequencies reduce the installation footprint.
Proven performance with use by NATO military forces and defense contractors globally, compliant with MIL-STD-810F standards.

Specifications

Environmental: Tested to MIL-STD810F, operational temperature range from -40° to 70°C (-40° to 158°F).
Electrical: Vertical polarization, omni-directionality within 1 dB, maximum VSWR of 2:1, connector type "N" Female, impedance of 50 Ohms, applied power of 350 W continuous, and vertical beam deviation of ±10°.
