RDB2020
Vehicular Antenna | VHF, UHF
The RDB2020 is a ruggedized, multiband vehicular antenna which significantly reduces the number of antennas on the vehicle. Multiple frequency inputs may be used simultaneously. This antenna utilizes a fiberglass housing that is fully “oak beam” compliant and is designed with a flexible spring that is rigid but still can be tied down to a 90-degree bend for storage or during transit. The antenna also has lightning protection internally integrated in order to protect the radio system from seeing the charge.
