Firestik II FS Series antenna

Jan 9, 2012

Updated Aug 13, 2012

This new antenna from Firestik has all the features of the KW series antennas plus a tuning mechanism that allows bare-hands tuning capability.

The design broadens the antenna’s bandwidth to keep standing wave ratio lower over more channels. The upper coil extension also increases the antenna’s power handling capability.

The antenna has a custom blended, glass fiber-reinforced shaft. Each is wound with heavy insulated copper wire to prevent oxidation and shorted windings.
