Air Band

The BNC124 is a 1/4 wave helical antenna with BNC connector, covered entirely with polyolefin rubber heatshrink The BNCVAR124 has a specially made 1/4λ phosphor bronze helical coil tuned to produce an exceptionally broadband antenna for use on the entire Air Band 118MHz to 136MHz.

Note: Also ideal for scanners that are mainly used for Air Band reception.

SMA124

The SMA124 is designed for transceivers where the SMA antenna connector is extended (RAISED) from the case of the transceiver.

A 1/4 wave helical antenna with SMA connector designed especially for hand held radios that have the SMA antenna connector raised extending from the case!

AIRKIT

Ground Independent - No need to tune
No need to earth - Works anywhere.

The AIRKIT is a ground independent fiberglass dipole antenna with 3.6m cable and a BNC connector. The AIRKIT is a popular air band antenna that can be mounted almost anywhere with excellent results. The Airkit is available with many different cable lengths, patch leads and frequencies including UHF CB - please ask !

The Airkit is coated with Black polyolefin and is available in also in White, RED, GREEN, BLUE or YELLOW.

The Airkit top section is a 1/4 wave 7mm thick 515mm long broadband antenna tuned to the center of the band i.e.: 124MHz The Airkit bottom section is a rubber ducky antenna 260mm long when tuned to the center of the band.

Pros  - Very broadband - Receives 118MHz to 136MHz, and for transmit covers almost 5MHz 121.5MHz to 126MHz.

Pros  - No need to tune - no SWR meter needed - Also available for any other part on the airband e.g. 127MHz

Note: When mounting this antenna on a king post, It should be 300mm away from the post to get the best results.

The RDRM124 is a solid fiberglass former with flexible spring top & coated with black polyolefin rubber on a 5/16" fitting
The RDRM124 works best when mounted onto a bracket that is as close to the surface of the ground plane as possible such as the BMB mount (Z brackets are not recommended with this antenna)

Recommended Accessories - UL4BNC or UL4C with BMB or Mag3.6C

Note: You should not use a spring with this antenna.

Code : SW124   Antenna Only

The SW124 is a stainless steel 1/4 wave antenna suitable for all air band applications on a 5/16" fitting. The SW124 works best when mounted onto a bracket that is as close to the surface of the ground plane as possible such as the BMS mount. (Z brackets are not recommended with this antenna)

Recommended Accessories - UL4C with BMB or Mag3.6C

Pros  - Broadband - Receives 118MHz to 136MHz, and for transmit covers almost 4MHz tuned to 122MHz to 126MHz.
     Please note that this antenna is tuned to favour the low end of the Airband and if possible the SWR should be checked

Pros  - No need to tune - no SWR meter needed - Can be tuned for any other part on the airband e.g. 127MHz

Cons - Not as broadband as the fibreglass M124-1 but is stainless steel and almost indestuctable

Note: You can use a spring SAL but you will need to re-tuned on the spring

Code : SW124       Is the SW124 antenna with the UL3.6C Base, 3.6m cable & Pl259 connector as a pack.

OR

Code : SW124 BNC    Is the SW124 antenna with the UL4BNC Base, 4m cable & BNC connector as a pack.

Code : M124   Antenna Only

The M124-1 is a fiberglass 1/4 wave antenna suitable for all air band applications on a 5/16" fitting. The M124-1 works best when mounted onto a bracket that is as close to the surface of the ground plane as possible such as the BMS mount (Z brackets are not recommended with this antenna)

The M124-1 is coated with Black polyolefin and is available in also in White, RED, GREEN, BLUE or YELLOW.

Recommended Accessories - A4C, or UL4C with BMB or Mag4C

Pros  - Broadband - Receives 118MHz to 136MHz, and for transmit covers almost 5MHz tuned to 121MHz to 126MHz.

Pros  - No need to tune - no SWR meter needed - Also available for any other part on the airband e.g. 127MHz

Note: You can use a spring SAL or SAO but the antenna will need to be re-tuned on the spring

Code : M124PBNC    Is the M124 antenna with the UL4BNC Base, 4m cable & BNC connector as a pack.

Then M124-3 is a fiberglass 5/8 wave antenna suitable for vehicle and base applications on a 5/16" fitting, The M124-3 works best when mounted onto a bracket that is as close to the surface of the ground plane as possible such as the BMS mount (Z brackets are not recommended with this antenna)

Recommended Accessories - UL4C with BMB or Mag4C

Note: You Should NOT use a spring with this antenna.

Note: A M124-3 on a MAG12BNC put upside down on the guttering of the house is an simple solution for a base station antenna

Air Band Base Antenna

The CDB124 is a fiberglass ground independent base antenna that has a 20mm aluminum anodized tube for mast mounting. The CDB124 is broadband covering the entire AIR band 118MHz to 136MHz without the need for tuning, however, is centered on 124MHz and has a bandwidth of 6MHz under 1.6:1 SWR it is therefore important that the desired transmit frequency is taken into consideration.

The CDB124 has a SO239 Connector at its base in order to connect to a standard PL259.

Pros  - Very broadband - covers the entire Airband 118 to 136MHz

Pros  - Ideal for scanning the Airwaves

Cons - Not suitable for mobile use and should be mounted as high as possible to get the best performance
