The Diamond X6000 triband base antenna is a commercial-grade, ultra-high-gain fixed station vertical radiator engineered for professional repeater networks, specialized amateur radio configurations, and multi-band tracking stations. Manufactured under strict tolerances in Japan, this premier 3.05-meter fiberglass radome mast features a multi-tiered array of colinear elements designed to provide seamless omnidirectional coverage across three distinct bands: VHF (2m), UHF (70cm), and SHF (23cm). It serves as an essential, high-rotation infrastructure asset for municipal emergency backup centers, technical telemetry installations, and high-volume B2B radiocommunication distribution networks across European markets.
The internal RF matrix leverages an intricate, stacked phase layout utilizing 2 x 5/8λ elements at 144 MHz, 5 x 5/8λ elements at 430 MHz, and 6 x 5/8λ elements at 1200 MHz, focusing radiation down toward the horizon for maximum signal propagation. This advanced electrical engineering configuration delivers powerful signal gains of 6.5 dB on VHF, 9.0 dB on UHF, and 10.0 dB on SHF with an ultra-low VSWR of less than 1.5:1. Rated to manage up to 100 Watts FM on VHF/UHF and 60 Watts on SHF (100W total FM system threshold), the antenna is housed in a heavy-duty, waterproof structure built to withstand continuous wind speeds up to 50 m/sec. Terminated in a low-loss, industrial-grade N-Type Female (N-J) connector and supplied with professional mounting hardware accommodating mast diameters from 30 to 62 mm, it ensures immediate deployment readiness for any base station infrastructure.
