ICV-III
3-30 MHz Omnidirectional

Applications:
The ICV-III antenna is designed for fixed stations and is suitable for skywave propagation for medium to long range circuits. It can also be used for ground-wave circuits up to approximately 100 miles. It are well suited for shore-to-ship communication circuits.
Features:
The inverted-cone vertical antenna has similar RF characteristics as the VOBA antennas. ICV curtains in contrast to VOBAs are supported by six wood poles instead of a single vertical tower allowing for more compact installations.
Characteristics:
The ICV-III antenna is a broadband fixed station antenna. All materials used in construction have been field proven and subjected to rigorous environmental testing.
Equipment Supplied:
Prefabricated alumoweld curtain, guys, base insulator, embedment hardware, ground screen, antenna matching unit, and spare hardware.
Optional Equipment:
Repair kit, repair tool kit, wood poles, and spares kit. Coaxial cable, connector adapters and mating adapters.
