2.3.5 Antenna Selection Guide
This guide shows some industry standard antennas which can be used with NAT NT-
Series Transceivers, and gives a range of mechanical choices where possible.

*The Foxtronics antenna will tune all channels with relatively low losses. An
external coupler (Foxtronics) is required, along with an interface adapter from
NAT (RS12-020).
Antennas with losses of over -6dBi (dB with respect to isotropic source) will dramatically
reduce transmit power and receive sensitivity. Special order, fixed tuned, narrow
bandwidth, single frequency whips are available from Comant. Spiral wound aircraft CB
whip antennas (Antenna Specialist, etc.) can also be cut down in length to produce
resonant antennas with very low losses for frequencies in the higher 30-50 MHz range.
Note that these will be very narrow in bandwidth, and must be tuned (by cutting) very
carefully.
Substantial ground plane area is required in this band split, and poor antenna locations
may produce very large mismatch losses at different frequencies.
