Swivel (Rubber) Antenna, Ham Radio 144/430MHz, Omni Radiation, 2/3dBi Gain with BNC Male Connector
Flexible Articulating Dual-Band Coverage
This 15-inch articulating dual-band "rubber ducky" antenna provides versatile 2 dBi (VHF) and 3 dBi (UHF) gain for handheld amateur radio transceivers. It features a swivel/articulating base to maintain vertical polarization when radio gear is worn on belt or chest rigs. Protected by a highly flexible, injection-molded TPE jacket, the internal radiating elements are shielded from rough handling. It terminates in a quick-disconnect BNC Male twist-lock connector, maintaining a VSWR of ≤ 1.5:1 across resonant bands.
