V-Tronix AIS-MAST 900mm Masthead Stainless Steel AIS Whip Antenna

This omni-directional antenna has been specifically designed so that the user can dedicate one antenna for the narrowband frequency specified for AIS (Automatic Identification System). By using one, dedicated antenna, this helps to eliminate interference from nearby channels.
