Panorama BSV-H5 VHF Base Station Antenna 149-159 MHz, 2 dBi, 100W, N-Type

Panorama BSV-H5 VHF Base Station Antenna

The Panorama BSV-H5 is a ruggedised, ground-plane-independent VHF base station antenna covering 149–159 MHz — ideal for professional radio installations, temporary field deployments, and permanent site monitoring. The black plated brass centre hub is mounted on a nylon stub mast and fitted with a N-type socket terminal, allowing use of different coaxial cable types and diameters to suit any installation. Three helical ground plane elements eliminate the need for a metal ground plane, making it straightforward to mount on walls, poles, or masts.
