The CHAMELEON V1 HF/VHF/UHF Multiband AntennaTM is a revolutionary antenna that stands at a mere 8.5 feet tall and contains a unique trap coil design. This antenna is ideally designed for mobile, portable or base station purposes were limited space is a concern.
This antenna is a lightweight antenna system with 11 BANDS of capability including: 6m, 10m, 11m (Citizens Band), 12m, 15m, 17m, 20m, 30m, 40m, 60m, 80m & USAF MARS/CAP(3.3MHz, 4.5MHz & 7.6MHz). The CHAMELEON V1 HF/VHF/UHF Multiband AntennaTM can also operate on the 70cm, 1.25m & 2m BANDS (144Mhz to 500Mhz) but is primarily a HF antenna. With an adequate installation and with a tuner the CHAMELEON V1 HF/VHF/UHF Multiband AntennaTM can tune without any problem on the USAF MARS/CAP(3.3MHz, 4.5MHz & 7.6MHz).
Unlike other multiband antennas, the CHAMELEON V1 HF/VHF/UHF Multiband AntennaTM requires no changing of switches, jumpers, coils, etc. Our simple screw together two-part system (4'2" each) makes the CHAMELEON V1 HF/VHF/UHF Multiband AntennaTM easy to manage and store.
The CHAMELEON V1 HF/VHF/UHF Multiband AntennaTM is a Super-Flexible Whip This advantage allows the antenna to withstand extreme shock from obstructions without breakage or failing.
To function properly this antenna required:
- A Tuner (RECOMMENDED) or a 9:1 UNUN
- To tune on 40M, 75M, 80M & USAF MARS/CAP a good ground and ground plane are required.
