 Model AY-128 117 - 137 MHz. 11 dBi Gain 
 

HIGH GAIN AVIATION BAND ANTENNA

Design Features: The VHF aviation band yagi antenna uses special feed which eliminates the use of folded dipole. The unique design of the yagi antenna feed which works as matching device to keep the VSWR low resulting in increased efficiency of the yagi antenna. The AY-128 aviation band yagi antenna is supplied with N termination fixed on the driven element. This directional yagi antenna, comes factory tuned and does not require any field adjustment. The aviation band yagi antenna is highly suitable as base station antennas for ATC sites where longer communication range is required to cover the particular sector like long strip or bay.

Constructions: Antenna Experts aviation band yagi antenna design reflects innovative modern antenna construction. Radiating elements, supporting booms and adjoining metal castings of yagi antenna have been constructed in high quality aluminum alloys to prevent corrosion. Special mounting hardware permits to mount the yagi antenna either Horizontal or Vertical polarization. The VHF ATC yagi antenna when packed comes with elements removed from the antenna boom for ease of packing and transportation. This yagi antenna can be assembled at site with simple hand-tools.
