AVIONICS

The AV-5 is an economical Ground Plane base station antenna for general aviation. It is ideally suited for use with Unicom transceivers and is field tunable to optimize VSWR at desired frequency. Durably constructed of high quality materials for a long operational life, the antenna is designed to withstand wind speeds up to 100 mph.

The AV-586 antenna coupler is a signal splitter providing two outputs from a single antenna. The necessity of bringing this product forward comes from advancing technology in avionics. Newer designed navigational radios have only one antenna input to receive all three (VOR/LOC/GS) signals whereas older legacy radios had a separate antenna input for the VOR/LOC signal and another antenna input for the GS signal. In an aircraft instrument panel with two newer navigational radios the AV-586 is the article that will provide the necessary signals to both radios utilizing a single antenna.

The AV-585 antenna is a diplexer/splitter providing (2) VOR/ LOC and (2) GS outputs from one VOR/LOC/GC antenna. It is a direct replacement for the CI 1125.

The AV-569 is a boat type marker beacon antenna designed for very low drag. It is constructed of an acrylonitrile-styrene- acrylic (ASA) shell with the internal parts encapsulated in rigid urethane foam for mechanical and electrical stability. The white color allows maximum performance without losses due to color pigments or unseen dirt. It is supplied with cellular neoprene mounting pad and hardware. The antenna is designed to operate at speeds up to 350 mph and altitudes up to 50,000 ft. It has a drag force of 0.20 lb @ 250 mph.

The AV-74 is a broadband blade type antenna for transponder or DME applications. The antenna housing is constructed of an acrylonitrile- styrene -acrylic (ASA) shell. The antenna is supplied with a cellular neoprene mounting pad and hardware.
