RFI FW15-HD Heavy Duty UHF CB Antenna, 4.5dBi, 477MHz
A tough, pre-tuned fibreglass UHF CB whip. Whip only; fits the RFI MB10 or MB12 roof base.
Overview
Need a roof-mount UHF CB antenna that shrugs off rough tracks? The FW15-HD is a centre-loaded collinear in a heavy duty fibreglass rod, supplied pre-tuned for the 477MHz UHF CB band.
With 4.5dBi of gain, it's a good all-rounder for mixed terrain. It needs a metal roof underneath. It also serves as a replacement whip for RFI's CD963-71-75 elevated feed antenna.
Key Features
- 4.5dBi peak gain (centre-loaded collinear) means a useful step up in reach from a quarter wave.
- Pre-tuned for UHF CB means it's ready to fit.
- Heavy duty fibreglass rod with UV-stable heatshrink means it stands up to rough work.
- 5/16" 26 TPI thread means it fits RFI MB10 and MB12 bases.
Install Notes
- Needs a metal roof (ground plane). For bull bars or canopies, choose a ground-independent UHF CB antenna instead.
- Maximum power 25W. More than enough for a 5W UHF CB.
- Mounts on an RFI MB10 or MB12 roof base.

FAQs
Do I need a licence?
No. UHF CB is licence-free in NZ.
Will it work on a bull bar or canopy?
Not on its own. It needs a metal roof underneath. For bull bars and canopies, choose a ground-independent UHF CB antenna.
Can you install it for me?
Yes. Our Bay of Plenty technicians can fit it. Outside the region, we work with partner installers.
