Antenna ensures maximum VHF transmission and reception

Glomex Antenna

Sept 26, 2022

While many people carry a mobile phone on board, VHF radio is still the easiest and most universal way to communicate while on the water. Built for use in extreme marine environments and backed by a lifetime warranty, the 4′ Glomex RA300 Glomeasy VHF Antenna from GA Communications is engineered for maximum long-range transmission and reception.

The Glomex RA300 antenna has a frequency range of 156/162 MHz with a 3dB average gain. With a maximum input power of 100W and 50 ohms impedance, it’s vertically polarized to minimize signal reflection on the water.

While only 11.64 oz., the Glomex RA300 is built with only premium materials. The fiberglass tube is highly resistant to stress and painted with a special anti-yellowing white paint. An FME connector makes for fast and easy installation. The 5/8″ x 24 threaded ferrule fits a wide range of universal mounts including the highly adaptable Glomeasy RA107SSFME using the RA358 adapter.
