Description
Icom FAS65V
VHF (148–174 MHz) Flexible Antenna
Standard High-Performance VHF Solution
The Icom FAS65V is a professional-grade VHF flexible antenna designed for the F9011 series portable radios. Engineered for maximum durability and signal reach, this antenna is the standard choice for mission-critical communications. Its flexible design allows it to bend and move with the user, reducing the risk of snapping or damage during heavy field use.
While often used as the standard antenna for the 148–160 MHz range, its wide-band design provides reliable frequency coverage up to 174 MHz. Standing at approximately 7.7 inches (195 mm), it offers the ideal balance between a manageable physical profile and high-gain performance for long-range VHF transmissions.
