Data sheet

The Sirio M150 PL is a reliable and economical VHF mobile antenna solution, manufactured in Italy by Sirio Antenne. Designed to offer optimal performance on the VHF band, it is ideal for amateur radio installations (144-146 MHz) as well as professional PMR networks (136-174 MHz). Its simple 1/4 wave design with a base spring ensures excellent mechanical resistance while providing clear communication.

Highlights

  • Wide bandwidth: With a bandwidth greater than 20 MHz at SWR < 2, it easily covers adjacent frequencies without constant adjustments.
  • Quality materials: The whip is made of 17/7 PH stainless steel, ensuring flexibility and corrosion resistance.
  • Robust PL-259 Connector: The base connector is a genuine Sirio PL-259 with a nickel-silver finish for optimal conductivity and increased durability.
  • Installation versatility: Thanks to its standard UHF Male connector, it screws directly onto any magnetic base or SO-239 (PL) type hole mount.
  • Adjustable: Although pre-tuned to 144 MHz, it can be easily tuned to higher frequencies (up to 174 MHz) by cutting the whip according to the provided chart.

FAQ

How to adjust the SWR of this antenna?

The antenna is pre-tuned for the 144 MHz amateur band. To use it on a higher frequency (e.g., 155 MHz), you must cut the whip millimeter by millimeter following the provided cutting chart until you obtain the lowest SWR on your target frequency.

Does this antenna require a ground plane?

Yes, like any 1/4 wave antenna, the Sirio M150 PL requires a metallic ground plane (the vehicle's bodywork) to function correctly and offer good efficiency.

Is the spring essential?

The spring is integrated into the base of the antenna. It is very useful for absorbing shocks from branches or garage entrances, thus protecting the base and the whip from breaking.

What is the difference between this model and a 5/8 wave antenna?

The M150 PL is a 1/4 wave. It is shorter (about 50cm) and has a higher radiation angle than a 5/8 wave. It is ideal for rugged or urban terrain and more discreet, but will have slightly less range in flat, open terrain than a 5/8 wave.

Can it be used for the VHF marine band?

Yes, the marine band is around 156-162 MHz. This antenna covers this range. However, the whip will need to be cut to tune it specifically to these marine frequencies.

Why choose the Sirio M150 PL?

  • Value for Money: An antenna manufactured in Europe at a very competitive price for reliable performance.
  • Proven robustness: The quality of Sirio materials ensures superior longevity compared to Asian copies.
  • Easy installation: The PL-259 standard is the most widespread, making this antenna compatible with the majority of existing installations.
  • Usage flexibility: Perfect for both beginner amateur radio operators and professional use (taxi, ambulance, 4x4).
