A1511B (Wideband VHF/UHF)

Wideband VHF/UHF NMO Antenna


The A1511B is a black quarter-wave NMO antenna with an integrated shock spring and frequency-specific coverage across the documented 132–512 MHz VHF/UHF range.

  • Covers selected VHF channels within 24 MHz bandwidth.
  • Extends UHF selection flexibility with 100 MHz bandwidth.
  • Absorbs movement at the mounting point with an integrated shock spring.
  • Handles up to 200 W in a heavy-duty 21-inch black whip.

Customization: Cable type, cable length, and connectors can be configured for specific installation requirements.

Product Description

The A1511B is the black shock-spring configuration for mobile VHF or UHF LMR service. Its wider tuning windows reduce the need to select among narrowly segmented whip models while keeping the operating range within the documented 132–512 MHz limits.

The integrated spring supports movement at the mount, and the heavy-duty stainless-steel whip is paired with an ABS base and gold-plated contact. The corresponding A1511A provides the chrome-plated finish when black is not required.

Ideal applications: vehicle-mounted VHF or UHF radios that need a black, spring-supported NMO whip.

Example Model Configurations: A1511B, A1511BAC
