VHF 3.0dB Gain Through-Hole Mount Antenna (132–174 MHz)

High-Gain Performance for Challenging Urban Environments

The Motorola HAD4022A is a professional-grade VHF mobile antenna designed to maximize signal range and clarity for vehicle-based radio systems. Operating across the full 132–174 MHz band, this 5/8 wave antenna provides a significant 3.0dB gain boost compared to standard unity-gain antennas. Its signal radiates with a vertical pattern, making it exceptionally effective in "urban canyons" where tall buildings and geographic obstructions typically degrade radio performance. The Motorola HAD4022A is the Motorola HAD4022.

Built for permanent installation, the HAD4022A utilizes a through-hole mounting style that requires a 3/4" hole in the vehicle’s roof or a dedicated right-angle bracket. This fixed mount ensures a superior ground plane and a weather-tight seal, providing the stability needed for high-speed transit and harsh weather. The antenna comes as a complete kit, including approximately 12 feet of low-loss coaxial cable and a loose Mini-UHF male connector for custom-length termination.

Key Features

• High 3.0dB Gain: Provides enhanced transmission power and reception sensitivity for extended-range VHF communication.
• 5/8 Wave Design: Offers a superior radiation pattern compared to standard 1/4 wave antennas, pushing the signal further toward the horizon.
• Wideband VHF Coverage: Full frequency agility from 132 MHz to 174 MHz (field-tunable for peak performance).
• Robust Through-Hole Mount: Provides a secure, permanent connection to the vehicle for maximum electrical and mechanical reliability.
• Complete Installation Kit: Includes 12 feet of coax and a Mini-UHF connector, allowing for clean routing through vehicle headliners.
