💰 Bundle & Save
Need a mount for your new antenna? Save $15 instantly on your order when you purchase this antenna alongside any DistribuComm NMO Mount (Magnet, Trunk Lip, or Hole Mount). Discount applied automatically at checkout.
The DistribuComm COMM58V is a commercial-grade mobile antenna designed for professional reliability across the entire VHF spectrum. Unlike hobbyist antennas tuned for a single slice of bandwidth, the COMM58V features a full-length 52" stainless steel whip that can be custom-tuned for Business Band, Marine, MURS, or Amateur Radio (2 Meter) use.
Engineered for performance, it utilizes a 5/8 Wave design to deliver a substantial 3dBi gain, significantly extending your communication range over standard 1/4 wave antennas. The base features a "Dio-Core" low-loss NMO mount with a gold-plated brass connector for superior conductivity and corrosion resistance.
