This omnidirectional antenna is a patented AntennaSys design which allows a highly efficient match over a very wide band of frequencies (270-470 MHz). Applications such as surveillance, communications and jamming require transmission and reception at widely different frequencies. Battery-operated transceivers in the field demand high efficiencies to prolong their life; narrowband antennas must sacrifice either the receiver or transmitter performance which lowers efficiency. This antenna was designed to provide the excellent performance required by the receiver (for maximum sensitivity) and the transmitter (for highest efficiency). The mechanical design of the antenna insures long life in the harshest environments. (Protected by US and International Patents. Licenses available.)
