Artificial Ground Plane on Single Grooved Roofrack/Bar mount without cable This artificial ground plane, allows you to put an aerial where you would not normally be able to get a metal-to-metal connection between the aerial mount and the vehicles' body. It has the added advantage of isolating the aerial system from the vehicle, helping to get rid of some interference (i.e. in modern tractors etc). About the Roofrack/Bar mount : This is our "standard" roofrack mounting bracket and can fix to round or square section upto 25mm which can be horizontal or vertical.
You can undo the 4 bolts and turn the grooved portion through 45 degrees for fitting to upright or flat bars.
Another option for this mount is to bolt it directly to the mounting surface by removing the grooved portion and just using the L-shaped bracket with the AGP on it.
This AGP & mount is supplied without cable... we also sell this mount with a 5m cable or any of our stud mount leads are suitable General Information : We have sold these Artificial Grounds to be used on boats, vehicles, houses, portacabins, wheelchairs, bicycles, motorbikes, backpacks and more!!
This means that the Artificial Ground Plane can be used on : - Fixed to the standard roof bars of Discovery, Freelander, Frontera etc without having to worry about whether the bars have a good ground with the rest of the vehicle
- Through the roof of Land Rovers - no need to protect your earth connection from oxidisation info
- Fibreglass/GRP cabs on trucks, farm machines, motorhomes etc.
- Roofracks and bullbars that are power coated or similar, that you don't want to expose metal on
- Anywhere that a conventional earth connection is not easy to make
- Fixed to a building, making a convenient base aerial system
The EGP is not suitable for very long or rigid aerials as it's pretty strong but not very strong. It is suitable for both large or small springer aerials. While it will cure any SWR problems due to lack of a good earth, the usual rule of "no metalwork close to the aerial" still applies, so if your aerial is being thrown out of tune by objects close to it - this will still happen with the AGP.
