MODEL TV-FM Antenna Mark 30 ALC    Data  Benefits

Mark 30 ALC is an Omnidirectional wide-band antenna (40-890 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 30 ALC compared to an ordinary Yagi antenna system are:

No adjustments required for proper signal levels.

Rigid, non-corrodable, maintenance-free construction.

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