Barrett BC91706 910
automatic tuning mobile antenna
The Barrett 910 is an automatic tuning mobile
antenna, designed to
interface with Barrett 500 and 900 series transceivers.
Providing a frequency coverage of 2 to 30MHz, the Barrett 910 features
rapid tuning (typically <1.5S) and
low power consumption. High
radiation efficiency and accurate tuning are
assured by maximising
antenna current (not minimising the VSWR) on every tune.
The Barrett
910 antenna incorporates a wideband amplifier
that is activated in
receive mode to enable channel scanning. Due to its rugged RF
design,
the Barrett 910 antenna can also
be used with high duty cycle
applications such as the Barrett 923 fax and data system.
The active tuning elements of the
antenna are housed in a grey
weatherproof, impact resistant reinforced poly-
carbonate moulding
that incorporates a heavy duty anti-vibration mount at its base,
even
with its rugged construction, the Barrett 910 weighs only 2.8Kg.
The Barrett 910 is supplied with
either a 1.65 metre one piece
stainless steel whip and a spare 1.65
metre whip or an integral 2
metre whip and spring. The main antenna
body has a 1.5 metre stub
control cable, with a 4.5 metre extension cable to connect it with
the
transceiver. This composite cable incorporates coaxial,
power supply
and control cables. Additional 4.5 metre or 10 metre extension
cables
are available if required.
