What type of antenna is referenced with VRC 110?

The type of antenna referenced with the VRC 110 is the 8-foot whip. This antenna is designed for mobile communications in different tactical environments, typically used with military radio equipment. The 8-foot whip antenna is favored because it offers a good balance between range and structural integrity, making it suitable for various operational scenarios. Its length allows for effective transmission and reception of signals over considerable distances while maintaining ease of use in the field.

In contrast, other antenna types like the 12-foot pole and 10-foot collapsible might provide different performance characteristics or structural flexibility but do not match the specifications of the VRC 110. The 4-foot stubby, being much shorter, would not deliver the same range or signal clarity as the 8-foot whip antenna, making it less suitable for the communication needs that the VRC 110 is designed to address.
