Compact Adcock DF Antenna
DF-A0214
Active
The DF-A0214 is a single band, compact Adcock DF antenna intended for direction-finding from 500 to 2000 MHz. The antenna presents patterns suitable for the Watson-Watt estimation method, as well as 3-channel correlative DF (CIDF). The antenna offers an omnichannel output that can also be used for monitoring. The DF-A0214 combiner board has an integrated noise source for calibration, passive GPS and an electronic compass
