Here are my suggestions of antennas to consider for some common applications. Of course, there’s no such thing as a ‘typical’ application, but these selections do tend to suit the majority of requirements we encounter. I must emphasise, this is not a definitive list by any means, please call us if you would like further ideas for your antenna selection. | |
| Application | Consider | |
|
||
| Evaluation | Vehicle Tracking antenna magnetic mounting, 1915LB (26 dB active) or 1911LB (passive). | |
| Marine | Marine Antenna 1330FW, 26 dB active. Ideal for mast use, active due to potentially long cable run. | |
| Airborne | 1270FW or 1213FW. | |
| Surveying | 1370FW Lightweight surveying antenna. | |
| AVL | Airborne puck antenna, single hole mounting and permanent (requires hole drilled in vehicle). | |
| AVL (covert) | Vehicle Tracking Antenna Element, small and easily concealed or GPA-07-AB2 | |
| Off-road use | Marine antenna 1331FW or 1330FW mounted to roof rack, or airborne bolt-through type such as 1213FW puck antenna (Magnetic mounting may not be suitable due to bodywork types). | |
| Hiking and Vehicle Tracking antenna | Screw-down Orienteering type, can be sewn into (or cable-tied on to) rucksacks, etc. | |
| OEM | 2051CZ antenna element, or a integration surface mounting single-hole mounting antenna. Use of antenna elements internal to OEM casing may require characterisation of enclosure | |
| We also sell ceramic patch elements for embedding into your application. | ||
