AIS tuned 1.0m stainless steel antenna for masthead or other similar installations. Has SO-239 socket & mounting L-bracket. Perfect for installations where the lowest possible windage is a requirement. Detachable cable makes maintenance easier. Although typically mounted as a masthead antenna, it is also suitable for mounting anywhere the L-bracket suits the location. Example mounting locations from our customers are along side solar panels, bimini side, on an arch, above a radar, or at the upper edge of a cabin top.

NOTE: This antenna is ideal as a dedicated AIS antenna. But if you are going to share an antenna between your VHF radio and AIS transponder using the Vesper Antenna Splitter, then choose the VA159. That version is designed specifically for sharing with a VHF radio.
