Key Features

  • VHF-band half-wave antenna
  • No-Ground-Plane (NGP) design
  • Works without a metal ground plane
  • Ideal for fiberglass / plastic roofs and cages
  • For UTV and off-road VHF radios

The Rugged Radios VHF 1/2 Wave No-Ground-Plane (NGP) antenna is a VHF-band antenna engineered to work without a metal ground plane, making it ideal for UTVs, side-by-sides, and rigs with fiberglass or plastic roofs and cages.

The half-wave NGP design radiates efficiently even when mounted where a standard 1/4-wave antenna would need a large metal surface to perform.

Compatibility

For VHF-band Rugged Radios and other VHF two-way radios. Use this NGP antenna when you cannot provide a solid metal ground plane; on a full metal roof a standard ground-plane-dependent antenna will also work. Match the antenna band to your radio's VHF frequency range.

Specifications

  • Band: VHF
  • Design: 1/2 wave, No-Ground-Plane (NGP)
  • Best for fiberglass / plastic roofs and cages
