Delta Loop Antenna (TDLS)

The Delta Loop Antenna (TDLS) is an incredibly versatile and transportable antenna system designed for multi-mode operation, a go-to solution for multi-mode communication in various scenarios.

The Delta Loop Antenna (TDLS) features two tactical dipole antennas, covering the 2-12 and 12-30MHz frequency ranges. Its ingenious design allows for flexible arrangement of elements, transforming it into a directional wideband loop antenna with an impressive forward gain of up to 7dbi.

The system comes complete with all necessary low loss feed cables, balun transformers, and ground anchors, ensuring seamless setup and optimal performance.

For mounting convenience, the antenna is typically erected on a tree or suitable natural object. To further assist mounting, SMC offers a comprehensive range of complementary support masts, perfectly suited for use with the system.

With components in drab olive or matt black, the Delta Loop Antenna (TDLS) combines functionality with stealth. The entire system packs into a single kit bag, ensuring easy transport and deployment.
