Aviation L-Band and Transponder Antenna
The AV-61 is a broadband blade type antenna for DME, Transponder, ATCRBS/MODES, TCAS & TAS. The antenna housing is constructed of anacrylonitrile-styrene-acrylic (ASA) shell. The white color allows maximum performance without losses due to color pigments or unseen dirt. The antenna 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 operates at 960-1220 MHz and it has a drag force of 0.09lbs @ 250 mph. This antenna is a direct replacement for Honeywell’s KA61.
