MOTOROLA VHF

Motorola Solutions is a well-established manufacturer of two-way radio communications equipment, with a history dating back to the 1920s. The company's VHF antenna product line covers a range of form factors—stubby, helical, heliflex, and whip—designed to operate within the 136 MHz to 174 MHz frequency band. These antennas are built to meet the mechanical and electrical requirements of Motorola portable radios, including models such as the EX500, EX600-XLS, CP185, CP200, CP200d, HT1250, and CT150. Key specifications include overall lengths from 0.5 inches (stubby) to 6 inches (heliflex), with impedance typically matched to 50 ohms for standard two-way radio systems. The antennas are constructed with durable materials to withstand industrial environments, though specific IP ratings vary by model. 3G Electric stocks multiple SKUs of Motorola VHF antennas, providing procurement specialists and maintenance managers with access to replacement or upgrade options for existing radio fleets. The product range covers narrowband and wideband applications, with frequency splits tailored to different regional allocations (e.g., 136–155 MHz, 147–160 MHz, 162–174 MHz). Each antenna is identified by its manufacturer part number (MPN), such as HAD9743, NAD6502_R, PMAD4014, PMAD4012, and HAD9742, enabling precise cross-referencing with radio models. 3G Electric supports global logistics for these components, allowing plant engineers and maintenance teams to source replacements without geographic restrictions. The antennas are intended for use in portable two-way radios for voice communication in settings like manufacturing floors, utility operations, and field service. No performance claims beyond published frequency ranges and mechanical dimensions are made; buyers should verify compatibility with their specific radio model and frequency plan.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about MOTOROLA VHF from 3G Electric.

What frequency ranges do Motorola VHF antennas from 3G Electric cover?

Motorola VHF antennas stocked by 3G Electric cover frequency ranges from 136 MHz to 174 MHz, depending on the specific model. For example, the PMAD4014 whip antenna operates from 136 to 155 MHz, while the HAD9743 stubby antenna covers 162 to 174 MHz. Always verify the frequency split of your radio system before selecting an antenna.

Which Motorola radio models are compatible with the VHF antennas listed?

Compatible models include the EX500, EX600-XLS, CP185, CP200, CP200d, HT1250, and CT150, as indicated by the product specifications. Each antenna is designed for specific radio series; for instance, the PMAD4012 stubby antenna fits the HT1250, while the PMAD4014 whip antenna fits the CP185/CP200/CP200d. Check the manufacturer part number (MPN) for exact compatibility.

What is the difference between stubby, helical, and heliflex Motorola VHF antennas?

Stubby antennas are short (typically 0.5 inches) and rigid, offering reduced profile for close-quarters use. Helical antennas are coiled wire designs that provide a compact form factor with moderate gain. Heliflex antennas combine a helical element with a flexible base, as seen in the NAD6502_R (6 inches long), offering a balance of durability and performance. Whip antennas are longer, flexible rods for extended range.

Are Motorola VHF antennas from 3G Electric original Motorola parts?

The products listed carry Motorola manufacturer part numbers (e.g., HAD9743, PMAD4014), indicating they are original Motorola components. 3G Electric sources these directly from authorized channels. No aftermarket or third-party equivalents are implied in this catalog listing.

Can I use a Motorola VHF antenna on a UHF radio?

No. VHF antennas are tuned for the 136–174 MHz frequency range and will not perform correctly on UHF radios (typically 400–520 MHz). Using a VHF antenna on a UHF radio can result in poor signal strength, high SWR, and potential damage to the radio's transmitter. Always match the antenna frequency band to your radio's operating band.

Does 3G Electric supply MOTOROLA VHF products?

Yes — 3G Electric (S) Pte. Ltd. supplies MOTOROLA VHF products. We stock the MOTOROLA VHF catalog and supply genuine factory-original products with full manufacturer warranty and technical support.
