THE AS-1743 IS THE TACTICAL DIPOLE ANTENNA FOR THE PRC-174.  IT IS PACKAGED IN A NYLON MILITARY CARRY BAG CONSISTING OF 2 ANTENNA ELEMENTS, A 10 METER LONG COAX CABLE ASSEMBLY (WITH BNC CONNECTORS), A DIPOLE CENTER INSULATOR AND TWO THROWING ROPES.

THE ANTENNA ELEMENTS HAVE CALIBRATION MARKERS FOR FREQUENCY FROM 2MHZ - 30MHZ TO ALLOW YOU TO UNWIND THE CORRECT AMOUNT TO MAKE THE ANTENNA RESONANT AT THE DESIRED FREQUENCY.

THE STORAGE BOARDS HAVE THE ANTENNA ELEMENT AND THE THROWING ROPE (WITH 2OZ LEAD WEIGHT) STORED ON THEM.

THIS IS A HIGH-QUALITY DIPOLE.  THE ANTENNA WIRES ARE KEVLAR-REINFORCED, AND ARE FITTED WITH STRAIN RELIEFS.  THE COAX CABLE ASSEMBLY IS ALSO FITTED WITH A STRAIN RELIEF.

AS OF THIS WRITING, THESE ARE AVAILABLE ON EBAY BUT THEY WILL NOT LAST LONG.
