Garmin Portable Long Range Antenna

Connect this long-range antenna to your compatible handheld to extend tracking range when locating your dogs.

Maximize Your Tracking Range in the Field

You need reliable equipment when your hounds hit a fast-moving track. Factory gear sometimes falls short. Garmin tracking systems rely on VHF radio signals to communicate, and these waves weaken significantly when they hit heavy obstacles like dense timber or steep ridges.

The Garmin Portable Long Range Antenna is built specifically for hunters who require an extra push of signal strength. A physically longer mast helps this upgrade punch through heavy canopies. You maintain a solid connection with your pack.

Built for Heavy Brush and Rugged Use

Gear has to be tough to survive in the woods. This unit bends rather than snaps when you push through thick cutovers. We designed this section to highlight practical field carry benefits:

• Highly flexible outer coating withstands dense deadfall and thick briars.
• Easily routes through the back shoulder loops of your hunting vest.
• Keeps the tip elevated above your shoulders for better satellite reception.
• Stays completely out of your face while walking.

Handheld Device Compatibility

You should always know if a part fits your specific rig before buying. This unit features a standard SMA connector. It serves as a direct twist on upgrade for the most popular handhelds on the market today. Just unscrew your old Garmin short-range antenna and attach this new one. No software updates are required to get started. It fits the Alpha 10, 100, 200, 200i, 300, and 300i models alongside the Astro series and PRO 550 Plus.

Foot Hunting Versus Truck Tracking

We suggest matching your gear directly to your hunting style. This portable option shines when you are actively walking in on a treed coon. Tracking from a vehicle is a completely different story.

The metal cab of your truck will cause severe signal interference. At Dog and Hunt Supply, we recommend switching over to a magnetic roof mount antenna if you are running gravel roads to intercept dogs from the driver's seat.

Upgrade Your Gear for the Season
