Digital Antenna 992-MW-S 8' Wide-Band VHF/AIS Antenna; 6 dB Gain – White
Wide-Band VHF / AIS Marine Antenna
6 dBi Gain
Utilizing technology developed for military and commercial applications, the 992-MW-S provides tactical and recreational marine users with a high-performance solution for broadband VHF communications. Covering a tremendous bandwidth of 134 to 176 MHz with a nominal 6 dBi gain, this antenna ensures reliable, long-range communication—including AIS, marine VHF, NOAA weather, amateur radio, land mobile, and VHF SATCOM services.
An exclusive patent-pending internal ground plane design maintains a low radiation pattern across the band, resulting in superior wide-band performance. Built to meet rigorous MIL-STD-810 environmental standards, the 992-MW-S is rugged, fully sealed, and finished with UV-stable coating for long-term durability. Each antenna is hand-assembled, tuned, and tested in the USA to deliver exceptional quality and reliability.
