AN/PRC-148 antenna
Gents,
I built a antenna for the AN/PRC-148 this week and just wanted to share it with y'all. It's a sub for the whip and covers 30-88 mhz. It can be woven through you rba therefore no more whip to get in your way. The guys at work want me to come up w/a power point to teach the "studs" so once I do so I came send it to whomever wants it. Very simple and cheap...... but not #12 crayon proof (18B)

You can fix stuff like that with the Edit button in the lower right corner of your post screen.

That's good stuff. That whip is a PITA.
Doing a .ppt is a good idea. I'd be interested in that.
thx

148 antenna
Thats great. Would you be able to email/PM me when ya get the .ppt's?? I can forward it to the 18E comittee to share the wealth. It looks like a worth while antenna. Maybe they can make it in their "Field Maintenance" class.
thanks

Another option which we do on my team is have EMS build a COAX extension that routes from the radio and onto the back of the body armor. This is then attached to a blade antenna that is wrapped into the body armor. I stay away from this set up as it hinders the transition from body armor to chest rack.
