New A1791-V 

Marine VHF Antenna

17.5 foot / 9db gain

A worthy replacement for the A1790-V, the new A1791-V marine VHF antenna is a 9db two-piece antenna rugged enough for commercial use but attractive enough for the finest of yachts.  It includes 20' of low-loss RG-8/X cable permanently attached to the antenna and a high-quality solder-type PL-259 connector for a professional installation. The A1791-V uses phased 1/2-wave copper and brass elements in a collinear array

with choking sleeve to suppress cable radiation, allowing for maximum range and efficiency. The elements are enclosed in a stylish UV resistant radome with stainless steel ferrule for use with standard 1"-14 mounts. All KJM antennas are backed by a 5-Year warranty, so you can communicate with confidence!
