Diamond V2000A Antenna for 6m-2m-70cm

The V2000A is the U.S. version of the V2000 Tri-Band Antenna. This antenna has been optimized for the U.S. FM Bands. The V2000A utilizes a linear phase shift design to couple the different frequency band sections together. A watertight joint assembly connects the two antenna sections into one rigid assembly. The resulting antenna has the same strength as a one piece structure.

This is the ideal antenna for FM operation on 6 meter, 2 meter, and 70cm bands. Similar in construction to the X200A dualband, the V2000A has an additional counterpoise radial – adjustable for 6m (52-54 MHz only). With 6m activity, enjoy the freedom of 3 bands in one compact antenna.

Special Features:
• Fiberglass radomes
• Overlapping outer shells for added strength
• Strong waterproof joint couplings
• Stainless steel hardware
• Wide band performance
• Highest gain
• High wind rating
• DC ground; antenna element and radials connected to mounting pipe
• Three radials
• One Year Limited Warranty against defects in material or workmanship
