CXL 230-1/DAB
Base Station and Marine DAB Antenna
DESCRIPTION
This 0 dBd omnidirectional base station and marine antenna covers the
terrestrial DAB (Digital Audio Broadcast) Band.
The antenna is a ½ λ design and this means that it needs neither
loading coils, ground-plane, radials nor other auxiliary arrangements.
Avoid mounting the antenna parallel with and in the neighbourhood of
other metal parts, such as masts, supporting wires etc. Free mounting
and as high as possible is most preferable, otherwise the SWR and the
radiation diagram will be influenced.
Bear in mind that the higher the antenna is mounted the better
coverage.
Furthermore, the antenna is a grounded radiator antenna and therefore
it shows a DC-short across the coaxial cable.
A conical glass fibre tube completely encloses the carefully designed
radiating element to ensure long dependable service in all climates.
