IAC Antennas featured on Ham Nation
IAC Antennas worked with Bob Heil, K9EID, to help him set up an IAC Phased Array at his new QTH. Bob is the host of the popular ham radio podcast called Ham Nation, and has done two episodes on his phased array and even demonstrates the system. He also featured our Standard Double Bazooka antenna in another episode. See our
Ham Nation Reviews page for links to these podcast episodes, for your listening convenience.
International Antenna Company (IAC) - a name synonymous with high quality Double Bazooka, Slopers, Inverted L's, Phased Arrays and Stealth Flag Pole antenna designs that work! There are those that will swear that no dipole antenna can compare with a double bazooka and they may be right!
IAC is a Christian based company and for over 24 years has been designing and manufacturing high quality, superior performance HF amateur radio antennas. The highest quality materials are selected to withstand the rigors of worldwide climate conditions from hurricane salt driven winds to extreme ice loading. Quality is never sacrificed in exchange for a good price.
IAC antennas are produced utilizing Mil-Spec materials and workmanship to ensure the highest quality products.
The Double Bazooka antenna initially hadn't gained widespread use in the amateur world because of difficulties in construction. Rarely could an amateur build a Double Bazooka that would withstand the harsh wind and ice loading that are encounter in everyday environments. That all changed when IAC started to produce antennas in 1992.
Currently amateur radio and MARS operators around the world are using the IAC Double Bazooka
line of antennas which currently includes the
Double Bazooka, our flagship product, the Phased
Array, a top performer, the
Half Sloper for limited space directional gain, the
Shorty Bazooka
where performance is required but space is limited, the
Vertical Bazooka when a low profile vertical is desired, the
Short-wave Listening Bazooka for
quiet reception and the
Flag Pole Stealth Bazooka line of antennas. Concealed within a Flag
Pole is a hidden Bazooka vertical antenna system that will meet most Home Owner restrictions yet
will provide high performance.
IAC is pleased to introduce our newest product, the
Inverted-L Bazooka line of antennas. The Inverted-L combines the features of a horizontal and a vertical antenna to provide a constant signal level to stations from near-in to more than 1,000 miles. Our 80m and 160m Inverted-L Bazooka Antennas are also available in a
shortened version, for space-restricted locations.
We are committed to managing our business for long term growth, investing in new technologies and maintaining competitive leadership in our markets, in addition to standing behind our products.
