The Sirio 2016 is a 5/8λ ground plane base antenna for CB, tunable from 26.4 to 28.2 MHz. It is made of aluminium alloy, with the coil protected by a transparent cover and the whip fitted with a waterproof jointing sleeve, and it is DC-grounded for protection from static discharges. The low radiation angle and the 1000 Watt continuous power rating suit it to a fixed home station working DX.
