Trasportable Wide Band Antenna
The SMC TWB2530 is a completely integral HF transportable antenna system. Supplied with its own fibre glass support mast it requires no natural objects for support purposes. The complete system is packed in a roll-up kit bag for transportation, and can be erected and 'on air' in as little as 15 minutes. All components are drab olive or matt black. The system is constructed of very lightweight/high strength materials including kevlar and nylon. NATO codified versions available.
