The Tactical 411 Broadband Antenna 150W is a rapid deploy portable HF antenna rated for 150 W PEP across the full 2 to 30 MHz band for NVIS and medium distance voice and data communications.\
Field teams need HF antennas that can be set up quickly without slowing the mission. The Tactical 411 Broadband Antenna covers 2 to 30 MHz, giving operators full-band HF capability from a portable system. With no need to change antennas across the band, teams can establish communications faster and stay focused on the task.
Deployed teams often need reliable coverage across local, regional, and beyond-line-of-sight paths. The Tactical 411 supports NVIS and medium-distance HF communications, making it suited to command posts, emergency response, temporary networks, and remote field operations. Its broadband design helps it work cleanly with HF radio systems supporting voice and data traffic.
Portable antennas are exposed to rough handling, changing weather, and unpredictable operating sites. Built for tactical deployment, the antenna gives teams a practical, field-ready HF solution that can be transported, raised, and redeployed as operations move. Its 150 W PEP rating supports dependable communications when teams need a stronger portable HF link.
Operates over the full HF band from 2 to 30 MHz for NVIS and medium distance communications.
Rated for 150 W PEP and 100 W average at full duty cycle for voice and data.
VSWR over the operating range is generally below 2:1 into a 50 ohm system.
Kevlar reinforced antenna wire provides strength, long life, and immunity to kinking.
Supplied fully assembled with anchor stakes, laminated instructions, and a canvas carry bag. No specialised tools required.
Rated to 160 km/hr wind loading with no ice for exposed field deployments.
Spreader bar sleeve mounts into a 32 mm inner diameter mast top, suiting the Codan 6 m and 10 m tactical masts.
