 MODEL TV-FM Antenna Mark 20 CA     Data  Benefits

Mark 20 CA is an Omnidirectional wide-band antenna (40-860 MHz) TV-FM Radio, for maritime purposes. It is based on a construction of circular dipoles coupled to an amplifier via a broad-band filter.

This antenna is made of ABS plastic and filled with polyurethane foam. Mounting base in saltwater-proof special alloy and bolts in stainless acid-proof steel.

The advantages of the Mark 20 CA compared to an ordinary Yagi antenna system are:

Rigid, non-corrodable, maintenance-free construction.

• Small dimensions and easy to mount.
• Omnidirectional, no adjustments.
• Replaceable preamplifier (and repairable).
