Description
The Shakespeare Galaxy 5018 VHF Antenna delivers a highly sophisticated design outstanding for long-distance communications, extra rugged for saltwater durability and stability in high seas. It is designed for boaters who want maximum VHF range with surprisingly light overall weight.
Phased 1/2 wave elements in a collinear array with a choking sleeve suppress cable radiation, while brass and copper elements maximize range and efficiency. A stainless steel ferrule with standard 1"-14 thread pairs with the included 20-foot RG-8/X low-loss cable and PL-259 connector; a Shakespeare Style 409-R or 410-R mounting kit is suggested (sold separately). Browse more options in our VHF radios and antennas category.
