This Is The Orange Model
The CHA FSR (Faraday Strip Radial System) is a man-packable, MPAS READY radial and counterpoise system engineered for enhanced efficiency, rugged durability, and portability in the field. Designed for serious operators, the CHA FSR delivers superior performance while remaining compact and easy to transport.
Enhanced Performance
In initial field tests conducted in Northern Alabama, the CHA FSR demonstrated a median increase in relative field strength between 23% and 28% compared to the standard four 12.5 ft. wire radials included with the Basic Vertical (BV) and Portable Resonant Vertical (PRV) antennas. With further testing and refinement, performance efficiency is expected to increase.
MPAS Ready
The CHA FSR is fully MPAS READY, making it compatible with all Chameleon Antenna vertical antenna systems, including the SS17, SS25, MPAS, MCC, and many others.
Durable Stainless Steel Coupling Adapter
The system includes a special stainless steel 3/8-24 coupling adapter, designed for universal mounting. This adapter features a 3/8-24 male thread at the bottom to sandwich the FSR securely on any 3/8-24 mount system, and a 3/8-24 female thread on top to accommodate bases such as the CHA BLANK, CHA HYBRID, and CHA MCC.
Portable and Practical
At a packaged weight of 5 lbs. and compact dimensions of TWO 6 x 4 inches bundles, the CHA FSR is built for portability. Whether you’re heading into the mountains, the field, or an emergency deployment, this system packs down easily for transport without sacrificing performance.
Simple Deployment
- Attach the Faraday Strips to your mount using the included hardware.
- Lay the strips out in an “X” pattern for an omni-directional radiation pattern.
- Secure the strip ends with the included tent stakes.
