EM-6501 Antenna, Wideband Blade/Monopole | HF 2MHz – 512MHz

The EM-6501 is a high-performance Wideband Monopole Blade Antenna designed to offer reliable performance in a rugged MANPACK/Radio compatible package. It’s a perfect HF antenna for the 2-30 MHz range and in the 30-512 MHz range.

Made in the USA, the EM-6501 is constructed out of premium impact resistant*, UV resistant*, and weather resistant* materials.

The EM-6501 consists of a foldable semi-rigid element and a matching circuit in the base with a fixed TNC (male) Connector (EM-6501) or (male) connector Type-N (EM-6501-1) at the end.
