UHF Antenna for 450-470 MHz Bands

The Browning BR-176-S is a 200-watt UHF antenna covering 450 MHz to 470 MHz with 3 dBd gain. Its 5/8-wave design suits mobile radio installations that need reliable transmission across this frequency range. The gold plunger-type contact pin ensures consistent electrical connection.

Stainless Steel Whip with Spring Base

A 13-inch tapered whip made from 2.5 mm stainless steel provides durability and flex resistance. The silver spring absorbs shock from low clearance impacts or vibration during vehicle movement. NMO mounting offers a secure roof or trunk-lid attachment, though the mount itself is sold separately.

Fixed Frequency Range and Power Limit

Operation is confined to the 450-470 MHz window, so the antenna cannot serve VHF or other UHF segments. The 200-watt rating sets a hard ceiling on transmitter power; exceeding it risks coil damage. Gain is optimised for this specific band only.

Questions about this item

What frequency range does the Browning BR-176-S cover?

The antenna operates from 450 MHz to 470 MHz, covering the UHF band for compatible radios.

What mounting hardware is required for the NMO base?

The NMO mount is sold separately; you need a compatible NMO roof or bracket kit and a 2.5 mm hole for the coaxial cable.

How do you ensure a solid connection when installing the antenna?

Screw the whip onto the coil until the gold plunger pin seats firmly, then tighten the NMO nut to compress the base gasket against the mounting surface.
