CXL 3-1
Unity-Gain, Omnidirectional Base Station Antenna for the
International Aircraft Band
DESCRIPTION
CXL 3-1 is a 0 dBd, vertically polarized, omnidirectional base station
antenna for the 118 - 137 MHz civil aircraft band.
The antenna is a broad-banded ½ λ dipole design.
The antenna can be mounted on threaded 1" water pipe using the
supplied 1" revolving nut. In this way, a nice, slim installation is
obtained.
A wide variety of accessory mounting hardware (see below) gives ample
choice regarding alternative ways of installation.
To substantially reduce noise caused by atmospherical discharges, all
metal parts in the antenna are DC-grounded. Consequently, the antenna
shows a DC-short across the coaxial cable.
A conical glass fibre tube with very low wind-loading completely
encloses the carefully designed radiating element to ensure long
dependable service in all climates.
