Description
Paradar 11.5dBi, for harsh outdoor use, ultra long range 868Mhz/1090Mhz tuned antenna for HNT, LoRa and ADS-B,
High quality low-SWR tuned multi-band antenna with N-female connector. Aviation-quality components provide excellent range for HNT (Helium) hotspots, as well as for drone and glider (FLARM or OGN) applications. Multi-band functionality makes it an excellent antenna for ADS-B on 1090Mhz, too!
The 16-element design allows tuning for multiple frequency bands, so we’ve tuned this antenna to suits a number of common applications! It provides excellent sensitivity across the following bands, and excellent isolation from frequencies in between.
Please note that this antenna ships as two 110cm lengths which screw together into a 220cm antenna. We recommend the joint is protected with self-amalgamating tape, in the same way as other outdoor connectors in your antenna system.
Installation notes
- Must be mounted vertically: the two drain slots either side of the connector must point downwards. Either tape from from below the cable connector to 10mm above these slots, moving the bracket as needed, or tape from below the cable connector to 5mm below these slots, leaving them clear for water to drain.
- Ensure all outdoor connectors are taped with self-amalgamating tape (not electrical tape)! Water will seep through screw threads over time, and will permeate your cable and antenna via the exposed connectors, causing performance to mysteriously drop some days or weeks after installation.

- At 2.2 metres in length, this antenna is a beast! Make sure the mounting pole can handle the force the antenna will apply in high winds.

Tech Specs
- 16-element collinear dipole antenna: 11.5dBi gain with very low SWR (typical 1.30 @ 868Mhz; max 1.50)
- Narrow-bandwidth resonance at several key frequencies, including 868Mhz and 1090Mhz
- Brass tube elements with 1.0mm copper feedline
- Impedance – 50Ω @ 868Mhz. When measured with a DC multimeter, it is normal for this antenna to appear short circuit.
- Beamwidth – 360° (horizontal) / 8° (vertical), vertically polarised
- Weight – 1100g including mounting kit / Length – 220cm
- N-female connector on antenna end
- Designed for use with HNT, FLARM, OGN, LoRa, ADS-B, AIS and other applications on the 868Mhz, 915Mhz and 1090Mhz bands.
The 16-element design allows tuning for multiple frequency bands, so we’ve tuned this antenna to suits a number of common applications! It provides excellent sensitivity across the following bands, and excellent isolation from frequencies in between.
| Frequency | SWR | Bandwidth |
| 868Mhz | 1.33 | 857 – 884Mhz (27Mhz) |
| 915Mhz | 1.15 | 906 – 928Mhz (22Mhz) |
| 1090Mhz | 1.29 | 1079 – 1098Mhz (19Mhz) |

This range of antennas is designed for harsh outdoor use.
- Highly weather resistant fiberglass radome surrounding a copper/brass tube dipole.
- Rated to wind speeds up to 215km/hr (60m/s).
- Operating temperature range -40°C to 60°C. UV resistant and highly waterproof.
- Pole clamp included (suits 35mm to 50mm pole diameter).
- Must be mounted vertically: the two drain slots either side of the connector must point downwards and remain clear to allow for thermal expansion, and to shed moisture.
Please note that this antenna ships as two 110cm lengths which screw together into a 220cm antenna. We recommend the joint is protected with self-amalgamating tape, in the same way as other outdoor connectors in your antenna system.
