GME AE4016 820mm Highly Flexible Slimline UHF CB Antenna 6dBi for 4WD and Agricultural Vehicles An 820mm highly flexible 3.5mm slimline UHF CB 477MHz antenna from GME, the AE4016 delivers 6dBi gain with a ground-independent impedance transformer design, a complete antenna removable from base, and a 5m FME-terminated coaxial cable, designed and manufactured in Australia for 4WD and agricultural use. Product overview The GME AE4016 is a highly flexible 3.5mm slimline 820mm UHF CB 477MHz antenna with 6dBi gain, the 6dBi version of the slimline AE4015 at 2.1dBi. Like the AE4015, it uses a unique impedance transformer for ground-independent performance and allows the complete antenna to be removed from the base, reducing clearance issues when navigating rough terrain, vegetation, gates, and low overhead obstacles. The highly flexible 3.5mm whip is specifically designed to reduce damage when travelling in rugged terrain, bending rather than breaking on contact with obstacles. The AE4016 includes a mounting base, 5m coaxial cable, and FME connection. Designed and manufactured at GME's facility in Sydney, Australia. Features and benefits 820mm highly flexible 3.5mm slimline whip: An extremely narrow 3.5mm profile with high flexibility, reducing damage from contact with vegetation, branches, and obstructions. 6dBi gain: Higher gain than the AE4015 at 2.1dBi, providing improved range for 4WD and agricultural use in flatter terrain. Ground-independent design with impedance transformer: The unique impedance transformer base provides ground independence without requiring a steel vehicle body. Complete antenna removable from base: The entire antenna can be removed from the base, not just the whip, minimising clearance issues when required. Pre-terminated FME connector: The 5m cable terminates in FME. Australian Made: Designed and manufactured at GME's Sydney facility. 5m low-loss coaxial cable and base included: Mounting base, cable, and FME connection supplied. Technical specs Specification Detail SKU AE4016 Brand GME Type UHF CB Antenna Length 820mm Gain 6dBi Whip Diameter 3.5mm (Slimline) Construction Highly Flexible Slimline Whip Design Ground Independent (Impedance Transformer) Removal Complete Antenna Removable from Base Cable 5m Low-Loss Coaxial with FME Connector Origin Australian Made (Sydney) Compatible with The AE4016 is compatible with ATVs, 4WDs, and agricultural vehicles in rough terrain, non-metallic vehicle bodies due to its ground-independent design, and GME UHF CB radios. Confirm connector adaptor requirements with us before purchasing. Frequently asked questions Does the AE4016 kit include an FME to PL259 adaptor for radios with standard SO239 inputs?The AE4015, the 2.1dBi sibling of this antenna, includes an AD503 FME to PL259 adaptor in the kit. Whether the AE4016 also includes the AD503 is not confirmed in the available source data. If your UHF CB radio uses a PL259/SO239 input rather than FME, contact us to confirm whether the AD503 is included or needs to be purchased separately before ordering. How does the AE4016 compare to the AE4015?The AE4015 is a 350mm slimline 2.1dBi UHF CB antenna for ATVs and agricultural vehicles. The AE4016 is an 820mm slimline 6dBi version, longer for higher gain and improved range, but maintaining the same slimline 3.5mm flexible whip design, ground-independent impedance transformer, and removable antenna philosophy. Choose the AE4016 for better range in flatter terrain, or the AE4015 for the most compact clearance profile. What does the 3.5mm diameter slimline whip mean practically?At 3.5mm diameter, the AE4016 whip is significantly narrower than standard UHF CB antenna whips, which typically range from 5mm to over 10mm. This extreme slimline profile reduces wind resistance, reduces the chance of snagging on vegetation, and provides very high flexibility, allowing the whip to deflect significantly from upright without damage. What does complete antenna removable from base mean on the AE4016, is this different from a removable whip?In the AE4015, only the whip element is removable. The AE4016 allows the complete antenna to be removed from the base, with both the whip and the transformer housing lifting away from the base mount, leaving only the lowest base component attached to the vehicle. This provides even greater clearance reduction when required. Is the AE4016 Australian Made?Yes. The AE4016 is designed and manufactured at GME's dedicated facility in Sydney, Australia. GME highlights local manufacturing as enabling them to tailor products specifically to Australian operating conditions.

GME AE4015 Australian-Made Slimline UHF CB Antenna Kit for ATVs, 4WDs and Farm Vehicles A purpose-built 350mm slimline 2.1dBi UHF CB 477MHz antenna kit from GME, the AE4015 features a ground-independent impedance transformer base, removable whip, and a complete kit including the AW4015 whip, AE4016B base, ABL020 base assembly with 5m FME cable, and AD503 adaptor, designed and manufactured in Australia for ATVs, 4WDs, and agricultural vehicles. Product overview The GME AE4015 is a purpose-built 350mm slimline 2.1dBi UHF CB 477MHz antenna specifically developed for ATVs, 4WDs, and agricultural vehicles operating in rough terrain. Designed and manufactured in Australia at GME's Sydney facility, the AE4015 features a unique impedance transformer that provides ground-independent operation and allows the whip to be removed from the base, reducing antenna height when clearance is limited by low branches, gates, or overhead obstacles. The kit includes the whip assembly (AW4015), antenna base and transformer (AE4016B), base assembly with 5m coaxial cable and FME connector (ABL020), and FME to PL259 adaptor (AD503). Features and benefits Slimline 350mm whip: A compact, low-profile antenna suited to ATVs and agricultural vehicles where height clearance and slim profile are priorities. Purpose-built for ATVs and agricultural vehicles: Designed specifically for rough terrain applications, the slimline profile reduces the likelihood of snagging on vegetation, gates, and overhead obstacles. Ground-independent with unique impedance transformer: The AE4016B base contains an impedance transformer that provides ground independence and matching without requiring a steel vehicle body. Removable whip: The whip element can be removed from the base quickly to reduce clearance height when navigating obstacles, while the base and cable remain in place. Pre-terminated FME connector: The 5m cable terminates in FME for quick connection. AD503 FME to PL259 adaptor included: Allows connection to radios with PL259 or SO239 inputs. Australian Made: Designed and manufactured at GME's dedicated facility in Sydney. Complete installation kit: Whip assembly, base and transformer, 5m cable, and AD503 adaptor all included. Technical specs Specification Detail SKU AE4015 Brand GME Type UHF CB Antenna System Length 350mm Gain 2.1dBi Design Ground Independent (Impedance Transformer) Whip Removable from Base Origin Australian Made (Sydney) Whip Assembly AW4015 Antenna Base/Transformer AE4016B Base Assembly + Cable ABL020 - 5m Coaxial with FME Connector Adaptor AD503 - FME to PL259 Compatible with The AE4015 is compatible with ATVs, 4WDs, and agricultural vehicles in rough terrain applications, GME UHF CB radios with FME or PL259/SO239 antenna input via the included AD503 adaptor, and non-metallic vehicle bodies due to its ground-independent design. Frequently asked questions What is the impedance transformer on the AE4015 and how does it provide ground independence?The AE4016B base and transformer contains an impedance matching network that transforms the antenna's electrical impedance to match the 50-ohm coaxial cable, while also incorporating the function of a ground counterpoise within the transformer housing. This means the antenna does not rely on the vehicle's metal body to complete its electrical circuit, as it is self-contained within the base assembly. This approach is different from a standard elevated-feed which raises the radiating element physically, but achieves the same end result of correct antenna performance independent of the vehicle body material. Why is a slimline design specifically suited to ATVs and agricultural vehicles?ATVs and agricultural vehicles regularly pass through dense vegetation, narrow gates, low doorways, and storage sheds where a standard tall antenna would snag or contact overhead obstructions. The 350mm slimline profile is significantly smaller than standard 600 to 1200mm UHF CB antennas, reducing clearance requirements. The additional ability to remove the whip completely when not in use addresses situations where even 350mm of height would cause problems. What does the removable whip feature on the AE4015 allow in practice?The AW4015 whip can be disconnected from the AE4016B base quickly, allowing it to be removed and stowed when the vehicle passes through low obstacles, enters a shed, or is transported. Unlike fold-down bases which require a fold mechanism, the removable whip provides a zero-height option. The base, cable, and transformer remain installed, while only the whip element is removed and replaced. What components are included in the AE4015 kit and what does each do?The AW4015 is the slimline whip element. The AE4016B is the antenna base with built-in impedance transformer, the component that provides ground independence. The ABL020 is the base assembly with 5m coaxial cable and FME connector for routing to the radio. The AD503 is the FME to PL259 adaptor for connecting the FME cable to radios with PL259/SO239 inputs. Is the AE4015 Australian Made?Yes. The AE4015 is designed and manufactured at GME's dedicated facility in Sydney, Australia. GME specifically highlights local manufacturing as enabling the production of high-quality communications equipment tailored to Australian conditions.
