EhubAmerica TXAB-136-74-FG2 VHF Fiberglass Base Antenna 136-174 MHz 6.7 dB Gain 200 Watt

The EhubAmerica TXAB-136-74-FG2 is a VHF fiberglass base antenna engineered for fixed base station deployments across the 136–174 MHz band. Delivering 6.7 dB of gain with a low radiation angle, it concentrates signal energy toward the horizon where coverage is needed most, making it well suited for land mobile radio dispatch centers, municipal communications sites, transportation hubs, and commercial facilities requiring reliable wide-area VHF coverage. The rugged fiberglass radome provides long-term weathering resistance, while a low-profile form factor reduces structural wind loading. With a rated wind survival of 110 mph (177 km/h), the antenna is built to maintain structural integrity in demanding outdoor environments without requiring heavy mounting infrastructure. A 200-watt power handling rating gives system designers ample headroom for high-power base station transceivers, and the standard UHF Female (SO-239) connector ensures straightforward integration with conventional coaxial feedlines.

Key features & benefits

• 136–174 MHz Full VHF Coverage — Covers the complete 136–174 MHz VHF land mobile band, accommodating a broad range of public safety, government, and commercial two-way radio base station applications within a single antenna.
• 6.7 dB Gain with Low Radiation Angle — Elevated gain concentrates radiated energy toward the horizon, extending ground-level coverage radius from the base station and reducing signal waste into sky angles where it provides no practical benefit.
• 200-Watt Power Rating — Handles up to 200 watts of continuous transmit power, providing compatibility with high-output base station transmitters and repeater systems without thermal or impedance degradation.
• 5 MHz Operational Bandwidth — A 5 MHz usable bandwidth allows the antenna to be tuned to a specific sub-segment of the VHF band while maintaining consistent gain and VSWR performance across the operating channel plan.
• UHF Female (SO-239) Connector — The industry-standard SO-239 connector simplifies field installation and direct connection to PL-259-terminated coaxial feedlines commonly used in VHF base station and repeater sites.
• Wind Survival Rated to 110 mph (177 km/h) — Structurally validated to withstand wind speeds up to 110 mph, enabling confident rooftop, tower, and mast deployments in exposed locations without requiring additional wind-load engineering for the antenna element.
• Low-Profile Fiberglass Construction — The fiberglass radome and low-profile form factor minimize aerodynamic drag and resist UV degradation, moisture intrusion, and corrosion over extended outdoor service life with minimal maintenance.
