TPV-VHF Slot Pylon Antenna
Features & Benefits
• High Band VHF (Band III) slot Antenna
• Top and Side Mounted Versions
• 25 kW Average Input Power (custom to 40 kW)
• Horizontal and Circular Polarization Available
• Available in a Variety of Omni and Directional Patterns

The TPV series of antennas are slotted coaxial pylons, available in top or side mounted versions. The TPV series of antennas are
available from channel 7 to 13 (Band III). Three standard directional azimuth patterns are available, plus Omni, with a choice of
horizontal, elliptical or circular polarization versions. The standard input rating of the antenna is 25 kW average power with a 3-1/8”
EIA input or 40 kW with a 4-1/16” input.

Designed for Excellent DTV Transmission Performance
The TPV series of antennas uses RFT’s patented E-Magnex™ slot coupling system, which probes both the electrical and magnetic
fields of the antenna pylon. This ensures a very low group delay signal across a 6 MHz channel with excellent low V.S.W.R. profiles.

Options for Every Station
The TPV series of antennas are available with a number of radome options, and can be furnished as stacked arrays with another
VHF or UHF antenna pylon. Each antenna is custom engineered for optimal beam tilt and null fill specifications. Wind zone ratings
of up to 150 M.P.H. basic speed are available. In addition to the TPV antennas, RFT also offers a low RFR version of the antenna
called the TPV-SFN, which features up to 25 dB less radiation at high depression angles.
