 TED 104-17 monopole (post) miniature ADS-B 978 MHz UAT antenna

NEW in factory-sealed bag with all mounting hardware and sealing gasket!

TED's newest Made-in-USA offering optimized for 978 MHz ADS-B operation. Perfect for either UAT, or ADS-B 'IN' usage with a portable receiver. This antenna can be used for both transmit or receive on 978 MHz! It is not intended for transponder, DME, or 1090 MHz ADS-B use, for which TED's 104-12 is recommended instead, which I also sell.

Specs:

Insulator: Annealed Teflon (superior)
Rod: Nickel-plated brass
 
Connector type: BNC female (most common) with gold center pin

Impedance: 50 ohm

VSWR: 1.2:1 (very power efficient) over 978 MHz band

Max airspeed: 250 KIAS

Frequency: Covers aviation UAT 978 MHz ADS-B band

Need more than one? Quantity discounts?

I keep hundreds of antennas in stock to meet your quantity needs. I will offer discounts for 2 antennas or above--please contact me for details prior to bidding or buying.

Other features:

The dielectric (insulating) material extends out of the connector body for easier cleaning and lower loss, plus it is Teflon!  Works great to replace that antenna that has been bent one too many times, or has gotten too dirty to clean. Or, an older antenna where the dielectric material has started to break down, causing high losses. This antenna is made in the USA.

Compatibility Questions?

Guaranteed compatible with all 978 MHz UAT ADS-B receivers and transmitters where the cable from the ADS-B unit ends in the common male BNC connector. This antenna fits in place of most previous monopole rod antenna installations with no modification. Contact me and your A&P or avionics shop for suggestions on mounting to composite or fabric-covered aircraft, for best coverage. I'll take any other application questions as well!

Installation tool now available:

I now have a loaner punch tool available in the US for making perfect clean 1/2 inch holes on an aluminum-skinned aircraft, or to assist in making a ground plane disk hole for fabric or composite aircraft. This offer is available to US domestic buyers only. Subject to deposit and tool availability. Contact me for details. I will also refer buyers to suitable punch tools currently on ebay auction, on request.

I also have cables and connectors!

Please see my other aviation-related auctions!

Need it quick?

Caught on the ground in Class B airspace with a broken antenna? If your need is urgent, I will also ship overnight via your choice of carriers! I'm a pilot too, and understand what it is like being trapped on the ground for a part failure. 

Feedback Policy:

Please--if there is a problem or complaint, tell me so I can try to rectify the problem first! I strive for 5 star performance and a positive buyer experience. If you don't feel comfortable rating me a 5 across the board, please let me know why and give me a chance to fix any issues. Feedback affects my ability to provide affordable antennas more than you might think!
