FireStik (FL3-W) - FireFly 40 Channel Plus CB Antenna,
Tunable Tip, Flexible Light-Weight Fiberglass, 3ft,
White, 5/8 Wave, 100 Watt, Top Loaded
Description:
The "FL" Series antennas are the performance
leader of lightweight top-loaded CB antennas. Each is
approximately 40% lighter than the equivalent length
FireStik II antenna. From the perspective of mount
stress, the lighter materials and reduced wind drag of
the "FL" antennas reduces stress by more than
60%. A 4-foot FireFly will easily perform on a mount that
is designed for antennas 3-foot or less. At the top of
every "FL" antenna you will find a patented
tunable-tip. Besides making tuning a snap, the design
broadens the antennas bandwidth and increases its power
handling capabilities. All "FL" antennas are
compatible with autos, trucks, vans, motorcycles and
ATV's in a single antenna configuration when metallic
ground plane is available. Or, they may be used in dual
(co-phased) configuration on any vehicle made from any
type of material. Like all CB antennas, the
"FL" antennas 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 "FL" antennas. In short,
tuning is as easy as popping off the tip and turning the
adjustment screw up or down as needed. All "FL"
antennas exceed the requirements of any CB radio, new or
old. Aside from the hi-performance loading coil that
maximizes the transmit/receive functions of your CB,
these top-loaded antennas will also receive the NOAA
emergency weather alert and national weather broadcasts
for radios with those features.
All "FL" antennas are 100% American made with
100% American materials. To maintain a balance between
flexibility and ruggedness, we use a custom blended,
glass fiber reinforced tube. Each is wound with double
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 will fit all
FireStik mounts and accessories. Each antenna is covered
with a static reducing, water-tight sleeve containing UV
and pigment stabilizers. For peek performance FireStik
recommends that you use one of their Fire-Flex coaxial
cables with these antennas.
All "FL" series antennas are factory bench
tested for resonant frequency and overall quality. They
are available in black, red or white with a black tip.
And don't forget ... ALL antennas, regardless of
style or manufacturer, MUST be tuned after installation
on the vehicle. Transmitting antennas are not
"plug-n-play" devices.
