Product Highlights
Laird PLC1589: 158-166 MHz, 9 element, 13 dBi Heavy-Duty welded, Yagis with Pigtail cable & UHF-Female Connector MNF# PLC1589Laird Yagi Antennas
Laird Yagi antennas, renowned for their directional signal reception, revolutionize wireless communication. Combining precision engineering with advanced materials, they enhance connectivity across vast distances. The design of Yagi antennas allows them to focus their radiated energy in a specific direction, providing high gain and increased signal strength in that direction while attenuating signals from other directions.
The PLC1589 from Laird (formerly Cushcraft) is heavy duty, fully welded, directional Yagi antenna with 9 elements, operating at 158-166 MHz, providing 13 dBi of linear gain.

Laird – Cushcraft’s PLC series of Heavy-Duty Fully Welded, Outdoor Rated Yagi Antennas Are Designed To hold up to the elements. Every antenna Is Covered By A Five-Year Factory Warranty.
The PLC1589 from Laird (formerly Cushcraft) is a heavy duty, all-welded, directional Yagi antenna capable of handling up to 250 watts of input power. All of the PLC Yagis, have their elements fully welded to the boom. These welds are on the inside of the boom to eliminate noise and enhance electrical performance. Complete weatherability is ensured by enclosing the feed system in a potted PVC radome that will stand up to your most demanding requirements. The pigtail feed will withstand a 50 pound pull, and makes connector weatherproofing simple. There are no moveable components, so you never have to worry about adjustments or loose parts. All hardware is stainless steel for long life.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Frequency: 158-166 MHz
- Number of elements: 9
- Gain: 13 dBi
- Length: 137 inches
- Power Handling: 250 Watts
- Five Year Factory Warranty
*Please note: Yagi antennas are able to be mounted in either the vertical or horizontal plane. The waves leave Yagi antennas in the same plane as the elements. If the elements are up and down, the polarity (or polarization) is vertical. It is necessary to have antennas at both ends of the communications link of the same polarity. Mobile systems traditionally have all antennas vertically polarized. For dedicated Yagi-to-Yagi links either polarization may be selected but be sure to choose the same for both ends of the path.
