The TM100 Antenna is our Number One selling product. Matching your antenna to your transmitter is the single most important link in your transmitter set-up - and a good antenna and match is the secret to getting maximum range.

When we say match we mean electrical impedance match... if the proper impedances are not maintained between transmitter and antenna, power is reflected back away from the antenna and back into the transmitter! This can cause the final amplifier stage to be damaged, not to mention a spurious signal and lousy range.   Our antenna consists of rugged pre-cut PVC pipe, antenna radiating elements and of course the proper matching assembly and is fully water-resistant when assembled. The antenna is easily mounted to any standard TV antenna mast like you can find at Radio Shack or K-Mart. A standard ‘F’ style coax connector is used, so that readily available, low cost RG-59 TV coaxial cable can be used for connection. And we even supply an RCA phono to F Male adapter for easy connection to any transmitter antenna jack. Total length of the antenna is about five feet, and it is easily mounted horizontally or vertically polarized - yes, we even explain in the manual the pluses and minuses for each. Maximum input power is now 25 watts. This antenna version comes fully soldered and mostly assembled with all of the electronics components soldered and ready to go.  Some assembly of the PVC and mounting parts is required (about 15 minutes assembly time).  You will want to mount the antenna to check fitting and test directional positioning before finalizing the assembly.  The PVC covering can be glued for weatherproof sealing once you are satisfied with the mounting.
