vhf antenna - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Hello!

I have a Shure EC2 wireless microphone transmitter, operating at 209.000 MHz. The antenna is a 1/4 wave helical with a female SMA connector, which Shure no longer supplies. Does anyone know of a supplier, or a custom house, where I can buy/commission such an item?

Many thanks in advance,

I wonder if a 220mhz ham radio antenna would work well enough for you. Many HT's are comming with SMA connectors now.
