Chameleon Antenna has taken the world’s most popular NVIS antenna, the U.S. Army’s AS-2259/GR, and made it better by making it lighter, more portable, and with increased frequency coverage while not sacrificing the ruggedness needed for hard field use. It was built for the jungles of Vietnam but is now ready for your harshest EMCOMM environment. The Chameleon Antenna NVIS is a specialized antenna designed primarily for NVIS propagation and for use by Emergency Communication (EMCOMM) operators. The typical use case for the NVIS would be for use inside a disaster area where communications with emergency aid providers, who are located just outside the affected area, is required.

The NVIS antenna will operate from 1.8 – 54.0 MHz (including 160m – 6m Amateur Service bands) without any adjustment when used with an antenna tuner. This antenna requires one center support, approximately 15 feet in height, and is self-guying.
