ISS HPR.0990 antenna is a high‑performance AM broadcast antenna for engineers who need efficient local coverage, dependable AM radiation and rapid deployment from permanent or temporary sites where a full‑size tower is impractical.
The ISS HPR.0990 antenna is a high‑efficiency, center‑loaded vertical monopole designed for AM broadcast and information radio services that demand reliable coverage in a compact footprint. It presents a resonant 50‑ohm load, so many low‑ to medium‑power AM transmitters can be connected without a separate external tuner, simplifying installation and ongoing maintenance. Typical users include AM broadcasters, public information stations, emergency management teams and local authorities who need a rugged, quickly deployed antenna solution for fixed, rooftop or mast‑mounted sites.
The ISS HPR.0990 antenna offers wide frequency coverage across the medium‑wave band using band‑specific versions, allowing engineers to match the antenna to their licensed AM channel. Its heavy‑duty loading coil and capacitive top hat deliver strong radiation efficiency, so modest transmitter power levels can still achieve solid groundwave coverage when installed above a proper radial groundplane. The 50‑ohm resonant design supports carrier power in the hundreds of watts range, with VSWR characteristics that help preserve modulation quality and protect the transmitter. Robust construction, anodized aluminum sections and weather‑resistant hardware support dependable long‑term outdoor operation.
The ISS HPR.0990 antenna suits broadcasters and agencies who require efficient AM coverage without constructing full‑height towers.
The ISS HPR.0990 antenna package typically includes the multi‑section vertical radiator, loading coil assembly, capacitive top‑hat elements, insulators and mounting hardware for attachment to a suitable mast, pole or rooftop structure. A properly sized radial groundplane is required to realize full efficiency and pattern performance, and the resonant 50‑ohm feed integrates cleanly with standard AM transmitters via a short base transformer or feed assembly. Experienced broadcast engineers can complete installation quickly, making this antenna a practical choice for both permanent facilities and rapid‑deployment AM information systems.
