Tuned to UHF & VHF Air Bands:
The uniquely designed MilTenna Omni is tuned to both the
UHF 225-400 MHz and 118-137 MHz Air Bands. The latest
version now also includes a third set of VHF elements
dedicated to the 138-140 MHz VHF band. Most other VHF/UHF
bands can typically be received as well. This antenna
can be quite esthetically pleasing compared to discones
and other multi element antennas, and it's also more efficient.
The VHF elements can be left off the antenna if desired.
DC Grounded:
A metal ground plane is not needed with this design.
Wide Bandwidth:
The core element of the MilTenna Omni design offers a
wide bandwidth, which is what makes it appropriate for
a band as large as the UHF 225-400 MHz Air Band.
Solid Construction:
The antenna is constructed of 1 1/2" aluminum tube
for the core element and solid 1/4" aluminum round
is used for side elements. No flimsy tubing or dimple
rivets are used. All aluminum is given a brushed finish.
Isolated Mast:
The actual vertical structure is comprised of UV resistant
plastic. This allows the actual elements to be raised
into 'free space', away from your metal mounting mast.
Weather Resistant:
All fasteners are stainless steel and the feed point is
protected by shrink tube.
High Quality N Connector:
Instead of the usual UHF connector that's included
with most antennas, this antenna includes a 50 ohm female
N connector, on the end of a small cable pigtail. N connectors
are more water resistant and handle high frequencies better.
Includes Mounting Hardware:
Price includes mounting clamps to allow attaching the
antenna to any standard 1 1/4" mounting mast.
Only Partial Assembly Required:
The core antenna is completely assembled, along with the
feeder cable. The only things that need to be done yourself
are attaching the side elements, and putting up a mast.

Unique Design:
This antenna is designed for anyone who's interested in getting
good performance on their radio, but isn't able to use an outdoor
antenna. This is a great antenna for people who live in apartments
or condos. The Blade can also be used as a travel antenna, or
even outdoors for short periods of time.
Tuned to VHF Air Band:
Each antenna is tuned to the VHF Air Band from 118 to 137 MHz.
Ready Made: There's no
assembly necessary and 18 feet of coax (with BNC connector)
is included. (Email
to possibly request other connector types.)
Easy to Position: The beauty
of the way this antenna works, is the fact that you can position
it anywhere. Unlike using a rubber duck, you can find the one
good spot in the room that gets the best reception, but still
put the radio anywhere you like. This can also be helpful if
you're trying to move the antenna away from RF producing devices.
There's also no ground plane elements sticking out to poke you.
The antenna can easily be hung using the two loops on the back.
Unobtrusive:
The Blade design is very slim and stealthy. The antenna is only
1 1/4" wide and a mere 3/8" deep. It can easily be
hidden behind blinds, but is also attractive enough to be displayed
in clear view. The antenna's bright white enclosure blends right
into the surroundings.
Copper Elements: Elements
are copper clad, which is a better element material than stainless
steel.
Narrow Bandwidth: The bandwidth
for the antenna is fairly narrow, which can help to eliminate
intermod problems from adjacent strong signals in urban areas.
18' of RG8/X Cable: This
cable is better for longer lengths than the average off brand
RG58 cable included with most antennas (if any), and helps prevent
signal loss.
Direct Feed Point Connection:
The coax is directly connected to the antenna elements, which
means there's one less connector between your radio and the
antenna. Each additional connector can create signal loss.

Each antenna is tuned to the VHF Air Band from 118
to 137 MHz.
DC Grounded:
A metal ground plane is not needed with this design.
Enclosed Elements:
The actual antenna elements and feed point are sealed
inside a UV resistant plastic radome. No need to worry
about corrosion on the elements with this design.
Weather Resistant:
Having the elements and feed point sealed in the
radome allows the antenna to be very resistant to weather
and other environmental damage. This antenna is strong
enough to withstand an ice storm, and will also do well
in a shoreline environment.
Copper Elements:
Elements are copper clad, which is a better element
material than stainless steel.

is prohibitive. The 1/4 also has more bandwidth than the
5/8.
