Instruction Manual
CXL-VHF/GSM
2-Band Marine Antenna Covering Marine VHF and 900
MHz Cellular (GSM, NMT-900)
DESCRIPTION
Covers 155 – 162 MHz (marine VHF) and 890 – 960 MHz (GSM and NMT-
900) with 0 dBd gain on both bands.
Mounting using standard marine 1” revolving nut system.
The existing antenna can easily be replaced – the downlead cable may be
reused.
Saves weight and exploits the precious space at the masthead best possible.
Performs much better than two antennas (often mounted too close to each
other – thereby destroying each other’s performance).
Only one downlead cable necessary – saves additional weight.
RG 213 recommended for lowest cable loss on both bands.
Mount the antenna as high as possible and unobstructed by metal objects.
Optional splitting filter (diplexer) type DIPX 225/330 available to connect the
two radio telephones to the downlead cable.
Wide range of accessory mounting brackets available (see below).
