The New 992 Wide Band Antennas provide tactical maritime users with a high performance solution to broadband VHF communications. Utilizing technology designed for military and commercial applications, Digital Antenna delivers the latest antenna technology to the marine industry with their new, highly advanced Wide Band VHF Antennas.
Featuring a tremendous bandwidth of 134 to 176 MHz, a nominal 6dBi gain and the ability to withstand continuous RF power up to 500 watts, the new antennas allow high quality communications across a normally hard to cover band. An exclusive patent pending electrical design with internal ground plane allows the antenna to maintain a low radiation pattern giving the antenna exceptional communication capability over a wide bandwidth.
Designed to meet the military’s rigorous MIL-STD-810 environmental engineering testing as well as typical marine standards for high seas applications, the 992-MW and 992-MB antennas are built to endure environmentally harsh conditions.
The new wide band antennas are designed for use with a multitude of services including auxiliary civil services, amateur radio band 2 Meters, VHF business band, multi-use radio service (MURS), 2-way land mobile, VHF marine radio, narrow band FM, VHF SATCOM, Automatic Identification System (AIS), and NOAA Weather Stations.
Digital Antenna’s quality components include a rugged hard coated anodized finish over aircraft grade aluminum ferrule, soldered brass radiating elements, power directing ferrite choke bead and high-gloss UV stable coating. Manufactured in the US by skilled craftsmen, Digital antennas are hand tested and tuned to assure the highest possible performance, quality and durability. The 992-MW and 992-MB feature a lifetime limited warranty
