Status 540 Directional Antenna

New Status 540 Motorhome or Caravan roof mounted Antenna system.

The Status is an efficient, wide-band, log periodic dipole array with an integral electronic booster. With the addition of specially designed telescopic antennas, the 540 produces exceptional performance across all UHF, VHF and FM signals.

One of the most significant features of the 540 is the setting up and positioning of your antenna when you arrive on site.

Firstly Status had to overcome the problem of receiving horizontal and vertical signals with an antenna fixed to a mast mounted through the roof. Their solution is to incorporate an integral gearbox into the antenna dome, operated by a winder handle, which cants the antenna through 90 degrees. A clever and unique feature only offered by STATUS.

The greatest benefit of the Status design was to simplify locating a TV transmitter whenever you arrived at a new destination. Firstly, raising and lowering the antenna dome and adjusting its direction can all be performed in the warmth and comfort of indoors. Then simply turning the folding winder changes the antennas' polarity from horizontal to vertical.

The 540 is available in two different mast lengths depending on your particular installation and mounting requirements. Both units have the benefit of being angle adjustable, by up to 15 degrees, to allow level fixing on a sloping surface – important if your mounting surface is not horizontal.

Once installed both units sit low to the roofline for travelling and storage, being only 150mm high. However removal of a fully assembled antenna is straightforward and can be lifted out without any dismantling.

The smaller mast length model is the Status 550 Directional Antenna, a roof mounted antenna with the mast falling inside a locker or short cupboard.
