Motorola NAD6502AR VHF 6" Antenna 146-174MHz HT1550 HT1250 HT750

The Motorola NAD6502AR is a Motorola Original VHF Heliflex antenna engineered for professional portable two-way radio use in the 146–174 MHz band. Measuring 15 cm (approximately 6 inches), it features a one-piece construction with a steel core and spiral-wound conductor designed to deliver optimal radiation characteristics — providing maximum output and greatest coverage in the field. A black color-code ring enables rapid visual band identification in multi-radio environments. As a Motorola Original accessory, the NAD6502AR is performance-matched to a broad range of Motorola portable radios, ensuring consistent RF efficiency and mechanical fit without compromise. It is the preferred field-replacement antenna for organizations prioritizing signal reliability in commercial, public-safety support, education, security, and industrial operations.

Key features & benefits

• Full VHF Band Coverage (146–174 MHz) — Covers the complete upper VHF land-mobile band from 146 to 174 MHz, making it suitable for commercial, industrial, and public-safety-adjacent operations without the need for sub-band antenna swaps.
• Heliflex Construction with Steel Core & Spiral-Wound Conductor — The antenna's steel core and spiral-wound conductor in a one-piece heliflex form factor provide optimal radiation characteristics and durable flexibility — resisting breakage during active field use.
• Engineered for Maximum Output and Greatest Coverage — Motorola specifically engineered the NAD6502AR heliflex design to maximize transmit and receive output, extending usable range compared to shorter stubby designs in the same frequency band.
• Black Color-Code Ring for Rapid Band Identification — An integrated black color-code ring allows technicians and operators to instantly distinguish VHF antennas from UHF variants in multi-frequency radio fleets, reducing mis-installation errors.
• Broad Multi-Model Compatibility — Officially compatible with a wide range of Motorola portable radios including the HT750, HT1250, HT1250 LS, HT1250 LS+, HT1550 XLS, CP200d, PR400, DP1400, and numerous GP, DEP, and XiR series models — all confirmed on the Motorola Solutions official product listing.
• Motorola Original Quality — As a genuine Motorola Original accessory, the NAD6502AR is performance-matched and validated to work with compatible host radios, preserving manufacturer RF specifications and mechanical connector integrity.
• Compact 15 cm (6-Inch) Form Factor — At 15 cm in length, the NAD6502AR balances antenna efficiency with practical portability — offering meaningful gain over stubby antennas while remaining manageable for belt-worn or hand-carried radio use.
