An antenna designed for radio in the field
In tracking or during a drive, the radio must remain functional while the terrain, vegetation, and distances sometimes complicate communications.
With its 48 cm, this antenna offers a length greater than the compact antennas generally used on portable radios. The technical specifications indicate that it can replace or improve a standard antenna and presents its length as allowing for better signal performance than a shorter antenna.
It is therefore an interesting solution for equipping a compatible hunting radio when reduced bulk is not a priority.
Flexible despite its 48 cm
Dual band VHF/UHF
- VHF: 136 to 174 MHz
- UHF: 400 to 470 MHz
Check compatibility with your radio
- the connector of your radio;
- the frequencies used;
- the transmission power.
The maximum allowable power announced for this antenna is 20 W.
Why choose the 48 cm antenna?
Long format
Its 48 cm makes it an alternative to shorter antennas when you prioritize radio performance over compactness.
Flexible and foldable
Despite its length, it can be folded down for easier transport and storage.
VHF and UHF
It covers the ranges 136–174 MHz and 400–470 MHz.
Omnidirectional
Its radiation is designed for radio communications in all directions around the antenna.
Female SMA
It mounts on compatible radios with a male SMA connector.

What to remember
The 48 cm flexible antenna is aimed at the hunter who wants to equip their compatible VHF/UHF radio with a long antenna, while maintaining a design sufficiently flexible to be transported in the field.
It covers the frequencies 136–174 MHz and 400–470 MHz, uses a female SMA connector and accepts power up to 20 W.
Compared to our 39 cm antenna, this one therefore favors length more, with 9 cm additional, while remaining foldable.
FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
It measures 48 cm, or 18.9 inches.
It operates in VHF from 136 to 174 MHz and in UHF from 400 to 470 MHz.
The antenna has a female SMA connector and therefore requires a radio equipped with the corresponding connector.
Yes. Its design allows it to be folded for easier transport or storage, despite its length of 48 cm.
The main difference is the length: 48 cm versus 39 cm. This version favors a longer format, while the 39 cm is slightly less bulky.
