The RFI CD28-41-50 VHF Mopole™ Antenna delivers a 3 dB gain across the entire 148 – 174 MHz band in a ground-independent, no-tune design. Supplied with an MBC right-angle SO-239 roof-mount base (cable not included), the antenna pairs a patented matching circuit sealed in a virtually indestructible thermoplastic body with a flexible,
black powder-coated stainless-steel whip that shrugs off knocks and bends.
Product Features:
- Broadband coverage of 148 – 174 MHz provides seamless VHF voice and data communications across multiple channels.
- The ground-independent Mopoleâ„¢ architecture maintains full performance when mounted on gutters, mirrors, trunks, or other unconventional locations.
- A patented end-fed matching circuit encapsulated in a high-impact thermoplastic housing delivers consistent 50 Ω impedance and long-lasting durability.
- The flexible, tapered stainless-steel whip with a tough black powder coating resists corrosion, vibration, and low-clearance impacts.
- This antenna provides a 3 dB gain improvement over a conventional ¼-wave whip, extending coverage range and improving signal clarity.
- An MBC right-angle SO-239 base is included for quick, secure roof-mount installation (coaxial cable supplied separately).
- Designed, manufactured, and patented in Australia for dependable performance in harsh local conditions.
Application Areas:
- Fleet trucks, service vans, and logistics vehicles require broadband VHF communications without a full roof ground plane.
- Public-safety, fire, and EMS units need rugged antennas that can mount on mirrors, roof gutters, or trunk lips.
- Mining, construction, and agricultural machinery operate in high-vibration, impact-prone environments and benefit from this antenna’s robust design.
- Urban delivery and rural logistics vehicles benefit from flexible mounting options that overcome space or clearance constraints.
- Marine and recreational off-road vehicles require corrosion-resistant, impact-tolerant whips for reliable communications.
In the Box:
- 1 × RFI CD28-41-50 VHF Mopole™ Antenna Whip (148 – 174 MHz, 3 dB gain).
