The RF-1941/RF-1940 Series are lightweight, portable dipole
antennas designed for use in the 2 to 30 MHz range with a
maximum power of 500 Watts. The antenna is stored on self-
contained flat spools, which form an integral part of the
antenna. During operation, unwind to frequency marker and
deploy; the unused portion remains on the storage spool. Each
spool also contains throwing line that can be connected to
masts, trees, buildings, poles, etc.
The RF-1941/RF-1940 Antenna series can be connected directly
to the AN/PRC-138, AN/PRC-150, or RF-5800H manpack, using
the manpack’s built-in antenna coupler for ALE operation. The
antenna design can be configured as a dipole, sloping dipole,
sloping V, or as a vertical rhombic antenna depending on
support and terminations (none are supplied). It includes a
10-meter, 50Ω coaxial cable with BNC male connectors. A
BNC-to-Type N adapter is also included. The RF-1941 is com-
pletely contained in a heavy duty 6" x 12" x 3" OD bag with
strap and clip points to attach to a military ruckpack. The
RF-1941 is more rugged than the low cost RF-1940.
