Description: The ICOM AH-7000 discone antenna receives
solid from 25 to 1300 MHz! It can also be used for transmit
on 50, 144, 430, 900 and 1200 MHz ham bands (under 100W).
This stainless steel antenna is 5.5 feet (1.7m) high and
attaches to any standard mast (not supplied) with two
supplied U-bolts. The AH-7000 comes with a preassembled 50
foot cable with an N connector at each end.
Check eHam.net for many reviews.
My comments follow.
I've had mine for 10 years, it works fine for transmitting
on 6 meters-70CM. The only problem I had was the three
screws that attach it to the included mast were not
stainless steel and had to be drilled out due to rust. To
be fair to ICOM, I bought it used and it's very possible
the screws had been changed.
