Frequently Asked Questions
What is DAB Band III and which frequencies do we cover?
DAB Band III spans 174–240 MHz. Our catalogue includes omnidirectional dipoles, directional Yagi (2/3/4 elements), and log-periodic antennas designed for professional DAB broadcast and monitoring within this range.
Are antennas factory-tuned to specific DAB blocks?
Yes. Dipole and Yagi antennas are factory-tuned to the requested DAB block for optimal performance. Log-periodic models are broadband and cover the whole DAB band.
Do you supply collinear systems?
Yes. We assemble 2-, 4-, and 8-antenna collinear arrays (excluding measurement-only models), complete with power splitters and custom RF cables to match the required coverage and gain.
Which antennas are intended for measurement and monitoring?
We provide wideband and narrowband ground-plane solutions, magnetic-base omni antennas for mobile use, and log-periodic models for spectrum analysis—each designed for field surveys and control centers.
Do you provide test reports and conformity certificates?
Yes. Every antenna is individually tested and supplied with its test report and declaration of conformity. Materials comply with RoHS regulations.
Are protective radomes available?
Yes. Optional PVC radomes are available for the omnidirectional dipole and the 2/3/4-element Yagi antennas—recommended for mountain (ice) and coastal (salt) environments.
Can I purchase online?
Yes. Product pages include online purchasing where available. For collinear systems, custom lengths, or special requests, you can also contact us for a tailored quote.
Where are the antennas designed and manufactured?
All antennas are engineered and manufactured in Italy by PROTEL Antennas, leveraging decades of experience in broadcast and professional RF systems.
