The AM/FM unit comprises TV and AM/FM receiver outlets and input for a separate AM/BC receiving antenna for installations
where a combined AM/FM receiver is used. The AM/BC signal is combined with the dome's FM signal and connected to the AM/FM
receiver outlet via the control unit. A suitable AM antenna is the Moonraker type 15BC/Marine with matching transformer or the
standard AM antenna on vehicles.
The TV/S unit is designed for installations where only a TV receiver outlet is required.

The Moonraker TV/FM Dome Antenna is a compact active antenna system,
designed to provide improved reception of TV and FM signals in both the VHF and
UHF bands for both analogue and digital transmissions.
The sleek low profile design offers good looks, exceptional performance, reduced
wind resistance and internal cable connection.
The system is truly omnidirectional and features separate VHF and multiple UHF
arrays. These two arrays are suitably coupled via a built-in diplexer. Reception at
UHF frequencies is also optimised through the ability to receive both horizontally and
vertically polarised signals.
Completely sealed within a low profile ABS plastic radome for complete protection
from the marine environment, the antenna exhibits minimum pickup from other
shipboard communications equipment and is protected from lightning static
discharge. It may be roof mounted on buses, camper vans, and the like, providing a
low profile, streamlined and rugged installation. It is supplied with 6 metres of low
loss co-axial cable for connection to a remote control unit. There are two types of
control unit available.
