Description
The Iskra FM50 is a directional FM reception antenna designed for the 87.5–108 MHz band. With 5 elements and a gain of 6.5–7.5 dBi, it provides improved signal capture compared to omnidirectional alternatives, and its front-to-back ratio of 18–24 dB helps reject interference arriving from behind the antenna.
The antenna connects to a receiver or distribution amplifier via a female F connector and mounts on masts with an outside diameter of 20–62 mm. Beam width of 50° horizontal and 70° vertical allows some flexibility in alignment, while the 0–10° inclination adjustment gives fine control over the reception angle.
