BTS-SHARKIE
Lead Time: 5-7 days after placing order
The Betso SHARKIE is a compact, wideband UHF, active receiver antenna with Log Periodic Dipole Array (LPDA) structure and cardioid directivity. It's extremely low noise amplifier with easy gain setting (-9 to 18dB) is ideal for variable coaxial cable length attenuation compensation in the field.
Rock solid mechanical construction guarantees careless functionality both in indoor and outdoor locations.
