Expedient antennas are temporary antennas designed and constructed by the user to
increase the range of tactical radio sets. Antennas that are components of tactical radio
sets are, for the most part, vertical antennas resulting in the signal being radiated equally in
all directions. Expedient antennas increase the operating range of a given radio set,
providing increase efficiency through the use of an antenna specifically designed for the
operating frequency in use, elevation of the antenna above ground, or by concentrating the
radiated signal along a given direction. Field expedient antennas are easily constructed
from field wire using poles or trees for support. Whatever antenna is used, it must be
remembered that the most important consideration is SITE LOCATION AND LOCATION OF
THE RADIO SET.
A vertical rhombic antenna can be made directional with the use of a resistor.
A typical vertical half-rhombic antenna consists of 100 feet of field wire WD-1 erected over a
single 30-foot support base. The principal disadvantage of this antenna is that if the angle
between the earth and the antenna wire is too small, the signal may be radiated at an
upward angle that may be above the intended receiver. Therefore, it is important that the
angle between the antenna and the surface of the earth be 45 degrees - 55 degrees. The
insulators and the resistor are installed approximately knee high.
1. Cut all four wires for a ¼ wavelength antenna. Connect them as in the
illustration.
2. Connect two insulators, one at each end of the vertical element. Attach a rope
with a rock tied to it to throw the rope over a tree limb.
3. Connect the WD-1 as shown before pulling the antenna up in the air.
4. At the radio, connect the vertical element wire of WD-1 to the antenna connector
and the ground plane wire to the radio set chassis.

(4) Guys used to hold antenna supports are made of rope or wire. To
ensure that wire guys will not affect the operation of the antenna, cut the wire into several
short lengths and connect the pieces with insulators. Small pieces of dry wood, bottles, or
even suitably shaped stones may be used.
(1) The distant receiver may be used to test the antenna. If the signal
received from a station is strong, the antenna is operating satisfactorily. If the signal is
weak, adjust the height and length of the antenna and transmission line to receive the
strongest signal at a given setting of the volume control of the receiver. If your set is
equipped with a power or SWR meter, use this device to adjust your antenna.
(2) In some radio sets, the transmitter is used to adjust the antenna.
First, set the controls of the transmitter in the proper position for normal operation; then,
tune the system by adjusting the antenna height, length, and the transmission line length to
obtain the best transmission output.
c. When a whip antenna is broken into two sections, the portion of the
antenna that is broken off can be connected to the portion attached to the base fitting by
joining the sections together. When both parts of the broken whip are available and usable,
connect the two broken ends together and wrap with wire, ensuring that wrapping is clean
and tight. Lash pole or branch to antenna until antenna will stand-alone. When the portion
of whip that is broken is missing or unusable, add a piece of wire that is nearly the same
length as the broken section. Then, lash a pole the length of the antenna securely to the
base section of the antenna and tie wire to the top of pole. If possible, solder the
connections.
Frequency Range:
Low Band - 30.00 t0 52.95 Mhz
High Band - 53.00 t0 75.95 Mhz
Number of Channels - 920
Types of Transmission and Reception:
Transmission - Voice (300-3,500 khz and 150 khz squelch tone.
Reception - Voice (no squelch) or voice and 150 khz squelch tone.
Security or Digital Data Equipment … Wideband 10 to 20,000 Hz without 150 khz
squelch tone.
Note: The failure of either station to receive transmission from the other may
indicate that the distance between the two stations is too great or that the squelch circuit of
either radio station is defective.
(2) Compatibility
(3) Accessories
There are four types of batteries available for use with the RT-
1547/PRC-126 radio set a full description of each is contained in the Specification portion of
this product description.
Caution: DO NOT store batteries in unused equipment for more than 30 days.
Store lithium batteries in a cool (i.e., less than 130 F), dry, well ventilated area.
(2) Applications
(3) Compatibility
(2) Dipole Antenna, AD-187 – most efficient antenna that can be used
with the URC-187 and should therefore be used when maximum range is required. The
antenna should be erected broadside to the desired direction of transmission – although for
communication beyond 50 kilometers, the antenna orientation is not so critical.
If the meter does not indicate a null condition, set ANT TUNE 1 to
next higher position and again rotate ANT TUNE 2 to find drop into (TUNE) area.
(j) Work back and forth between ANT TUNE 1 and ANT
TUNE 2 for lowest meter reading.
(k) Turn FUNCTION SWITCH to desired mode, LSB, USB,
CWL, CWU, or AM.
(l) Key the set and speak into the microphone. Meter
indication should increase per voice level.
Caution: Push battery Test Button and Repeat Step 14. If voltage drops below
9 volts on voice speaks, it is an indication that the battery is almost discharged and should
be replaced.
