Description
Operating on two dedicated VHF channels (161.025 and 162.025 MHz), AIS monitors marine traffic and enables users to receive real-time information about traffic in the area. This can be critical in bad weather conditions, in fog, at night, etc. The Glomeasy RA300AIS Antenna is a high-performance, rugged VHF antenna constructed of a durable fibreglass tube that is treated with an anti-yellowing material and protects the internal brass elements. Its 1.2m length and 3dB gain make it suitable for mast-top mounting for optimum transmission performance or on a jet ski. The antenna has an internally integrated 5/8"x24 threaded socket for easy mounting on any suitable mount. If using the GLRA107SSFME stainless steel 4-way ratchet mount, you will need the RA358 adapter socket. If a longer antenna length is preferred, there is a matching extension available separately (RA301) in the same rugged materials, which can be attached to the base. This is equipped with a 1" x 14 ferrule for easy installation on mounts.
