Description

I have decided to offer this in white or black, white is recommended!!! The reason being that white color is better in HOT climates!! If you want it in another color, then you can spray paint it that color, just make sure the paint is for PLASTIC AND HAS UV RESISTANCE in it!!!

This 3d printed 1/4 GMRS/Ham antenna kit or a NOAA weather 1/4 wave antenna kit. This Will let you use small gauge stranded wire!! And it only weights about 4oz – 5.1oz!! YOU have to build your own wire antenna for this kit, very easy to do!!!

Features:

light weight, only about 4 oz (not including wire for antenna, screws)

about 2-2.8 DBI gain!

Can use small gauge wire (like telephone wire)

will fit on 3/4 PVC pipe

caps for the ends

hollow “rods” are about 7.3 inches long!!

It can be painted ANY color to blend into the environment, just make sure the spray paint is for PLASTIC AND HAD UV RESISTANCE in it!!!

Option to add turn it into a NOAA weather antenna!!

What is included in the kit:

(1) top housing

(1) bottom housing

(1) 3/4 bottom housing adapter

(5) hollow tubing

(1) SO-239 connector

(5) end caps

(1) top cone adapter

NOAA weather antenna add-on option = couplers & rods that will add length of each rod to be about 18.5 inches. The wire length that is need for this antenna 18 3/16 inches long, which is the basic 162.500 MHz ground plane antenna to improve NOAA Weather Radio reception. You will also need a pl259 to RCA adapter, here is a link to that PL259 to RCA adapter

The weight of this NOAA weather antenna is about 5.1oz!! This does not include the wire and connectors need to make the antenna!!!

What you need to buy separately that is NOT included!!

(4) #6×3/8 sheet metal screws (to mount so-239 connector)

(4) #6×3/8 sheet metal screws (to mount the top to the bottom if you want to use more than silicone to attach it)

superglue (optional if you don’t plan on taking this apart in the future)

silicone ( to seal and if you want to take this apart in the future)

wire to build the GMRS/Ham OR NOAA weather antenna that goes into this housing kit.

Ring terminals (depending on the wire gauge (size) you are going to be using this may not be need)

misc screws you may use for mounting, etc

drill bit to drill holes for screws

if adding NOAA weather add-on option then you will also need a PL259 to RCA adapter, here is a link to that: Pl259 to RCA adapter

NOTE: plastic is for outside, however I highly recommend spraying it with a clear coat for plastic that has UV resistance in it!!

Here is a link to that type of clear coat spray paint NOTE it don’t say on the website that it’s UV resistance, but it does say that on the can!!

Clear coat spray paint

It can be painted ANY color to blend into the environment, just make sure the spray paint is for PLASTIC AND HAS UV RESISTANCE in it!!!
