FireStik (TM4) - 10-Meter Antenna, Tunable Tip,
28.3-28.5MHz, Fiberglass, 4ft, 5/8 Wave, 900 Watt
Description:
After having great success with their tunable tip antenna
design, FireStik captured all of the features in this
10-meter amateur mobile antenna. Aside from the ease of
tuning, the patented design of the tunable tip broadens
the antennas bandwidth to keep SWR lower over more
channels. The upper coil extension also increases the
power handling capability of the antenna. The TM4 antenna
is compatible with autos, trucks, vans, motorcycles and
ATV's in a single antenna configuration when metallic
ground plane is available. May also be used in dual
(co-phased) configuration on any vehicle made from any
type of material. Like all transmitting antennas, the TM4
antenna should be fine-tuned (SWR) in their final
mounting location. If you have ever tuned a non-tunable
tip antenna, you will have a real appreciation for the
TM4 antenna. To tune you just pop-of the tip and turn the
adjustment screw up or down as needed. The hi-performance
loading coil maximizes the transmit/receive functions of
your transceiver.
The TM4 antenna is 100% American made with 100% American
materials. To maintain a balance between flexibility and
ruggedness, FireStik uses a custom blended, glass fiber
reinforced shaft. Each is wound with heavy insulated
copper wire to prevent the oxidation and shorted windings
often found on non-FireStik antennas. The tunable tip
mechanism is made from rust-proof brass and has a rubber
o-ring to hold the adjuster in place after tuning. The
3/8"-24 threaded base has a tapered contact point
that works especially well with FireStik mounts and
accessories. The tapered "lug-nut" effect
transfers stress away from the threads and reduces the
possibility of vibration induced loosening of the antenna
in its mount. Each antenna is covered with a static
reducing, water-tight sleeve containing UV and pigment
stabilizers. For peek performance we recommend that you
use an 18-foot coaxial cable with these antennas.
