Antennas + Antenna Bases

The right antenna depends on your radio's frequency band (UHF, VHF, or dual-band), how you use it (vehicle, base station, handheld), and your environment. If unsure, contact us with your radio model and use case.

• UHF antennas are best for short-range line-of-sight comms in urban or hilly terrain.

• VHF antennas work better over long distances in open or rural areas.

• Make sure your antenna matches your radio’s frequency band.

Yes — but you need the right connector type (e.g. UHF male, TNC, SMA) and frequency match. Each product page lists compatibility, or we can confirm for your specific radio.

We supply a full range of mounts including:

• Magnetic bases

• Bullbar brackets

• Bonnet & gutter mounts

• Spring bases for harsh environments

Yes — many mobile antennas come with plug-and-play mounts. For more permanent or roof-mounted installs, professional fitting is recommended to ensure proper SWR tuning and cable routing.

Some antennas (like 1/4 wave ground-dependent) require a metal surface (vehicle roof or bonnet) to operate efficiently. Others (ground-independent antennas) do not. Check the product description or ask our team.

Yes — we stock high-gain and omnidirectional antennas suitable for fixed-site use, along with mounting brackets and coaxial cable kits.
