Rugged Radios VHF Antenna Kit with 1/2 Wave No Ground Plane (NGP) Antenna & NMO Mount

Simple kit combines what you need for antenna replacement in the field. Includes NGP (No Ground Plane) VHF 1/2 Wave antenna and 3/8" NMO style cable mount with 15 feet of cable.

"No Ground Plane" means the antenna does not have to be attached to a metal surface (such as a vehicle roof or larger body panel). Although using a ground plane is always better, this NGP antenna performs great for all uses, drivers, teams, and applications.

Molded high heat ABS mounting base features silver soldered connections, gold plated push pin contacts and O-ring. The VHF antenna is already pre-tuned (cut) for VHF application. Simply order, mount, and ride!
