Product Description

Airband VHF AirKit Fibreglass Antenna 118.00 to 136.00 Mhz for LSA & Microlight Aircraft

Ground Independent - No need to earth - No Need to Tune - Works anywhere.

The M1AIRKIT is an Airband VHF Dual Antenna kit for ultra light aircraft, and suitable for Trikes, Microlights, Gyros, Nanolights, Light Sport and other LSA Aircraft. Both antennas work in tandem, monitorting the airspace above and below the aircraft, limiting black spots, and any signal losses or blockages that result from the aircraft body.

The kit includes two Ground Independent Dipole VHF Antennas tuned to 124MHz, and a King Post Dual Antenna Base hard wired with 3.6m of coaxial cable and a BNC connector.

These Australian Made, high quality fibreglass antennas are 7mm in diameter, and come in two sizes, 515mm and 300mm. Both are coated with black polyolefin rubber and have 5/16" screw down connectors. They attach to the King Post Base opposite to each other, and are vertically mounted on an airframe, with the long antenna facing up and the short antenna facing down.

The King Post Base requires an 'L Shape' hole mount bracket to attach to the airframe.

*note: bracket not included

GENERAL INFORMATION ON ANTENNAS

Antennas mounted on a metal fuselage
If you are mounting the antenna on a metal airplane then you will have no problems with ground plane.

Antennas mounted on a fiberglass fuselage
If you are mounting the antenna on a fiberglass area then you will need to create a ground plane by the use of a metal surface such as wire mesh.

Special Order - Available with many different cable lengths, patch leads and connectors.
