820mm Flexible UHF Antenna Whip (6dBi Gain)
What this is: the AW4016 is GME's genuine replacement whip for the AE4016 UHF antenna system. On its own it needs a compatible base and lead to make a complete, usable antenna.
Overview
The GME AW4016 is a slimline, highly flexible fibreglass whip built for 4WD and agricultural use, where a rigid whip risks snapping on low branches, yard rails, or shed doorways. It carries 6dBi gain, a solid middle ground between a basic unity-gain whip and a bulkier high-gain option.
It is a genuine GME part, built to the same standard as the rest of the AE4016 system, and a straightforward swap if your existing whip has snapped or worn out.
Key Features
- Highly flexible 3.5mm slimline design means less chance of snapping or damage when brushing past branches, yard rails, or low clearance areas.
- 6dBi gain means a solid signal for open country and rural work, a step up from a basic unity-gain whip.
- 820mm length balances gain and practicality for everyday 4WD and farm use.
- Made in Australia to GME's usual manufacturing standard.
- 1 year manufacturer's warranty means peace of mind on a part that takes the brunt of everyday knocks.
Applications
- 4WD and touring vehicles running the AE4016 antenna system
- Farm and agricultural vehicles working in tight yards, sheds, or laneways
- Replacing a damaged, snapped, or worn AE4016 whip
What's in the Box
- Antenna whip only
Sold separately: the ABL020 base and lead, and any UHF CB radio. If you need the complete antenna, see the AE4016 complete kit.

FAQ
Does the AW4016 include the antenna base?
No, the AW4016 is the whip only. If you need the complete antenna, see the AE4016 kit, or buy the ABL020 base and lead separately if you already have the whip.
What does the AW4016 suit?
The AW4016 is designed by GME specifically for the AE4016 UHF antenna system.
Why is this whip flexible rather than rigid?
The slimline, highly flexible design is built for 4WD and agricultural use, where a rigid whip is more likely to snap on branches, yard rails, or low clearance areas.
What warranty comes with the AW4016?
It carries GME's standard 1 year warranty.
