I heard that this kit can come with an early antenna design (1.0) that was flakey or a new design (2.0) that works. What antenna version is included?

Version 1.0 comes with a nice antenna. The issue is that the WiFi module in Version 1 uses is an old WiFi module from Microchip that supports WiFi A&B; but not G (i.e. is limited and old). The WiFi A & B protocols are old standards and many modern (even 4+ year old) routers/AP don't support those protocols well (or in some cases at all). Version 2.0 uses a newer WiFi module that supports the G standard along with a few more enhancements.

Version 2.0 of the iAqualink has the modern module and the original version has the older module.

Hi DBanks,Because the iQ900 RS has been discontinued, we encourage you to purchase the IQ20-RS, which comes with the 2.0 antenna.If you have any additional questions, please reach out to our product support team at (800) 822-7933 or productsupport@zodiac.com.Thanks for reaching out!JulieZodiac

I guess from the company ?, look in the booklet or google the radio model something should show up .I never had to replace the antenna so I do not know.

The antenna is fixed and cannot be changed. You might be able to add a connector if you have good soldering skills, but I have not opened mine to confirm. It works fine for me and has good coverage.

Yes. I found it MUCH better than the stock antenna AND the 701 models! It's a bit long from some and the tip popped off one and is lost, but that is it.

I purchased 3 NAGOYA antenna from the seller Hypario, they are all factory in the bag perfectly new and work great. It will take a few seconds with the longer antenna to get used to, not poking you're self in the eye, LOL

You always need a swr meter when setting up any new antenna! They will tell you that in the tuning instructions that come with the antena

The last one I bought has a female voice and a rubber duck antenna on an SMA connector. Signal quality at the receivers was very poor so I replaced the rubber duckie with an 18.5" antenna whip made from 0.039" piano wire. That fixed the poor signal quality issue. Bad move on the part of Dakota Alert to switch to such a poor antenna. I spoke to tech support and they tried telling me that the rubber duckie antenna was as good as the older telescopic antenna! Yea right...

It fits my Incredible 2- I noticed that the antenna strenght seems weaker, but the battery is twice as big, and lasts twice as long. Has anyone else noticed this issue? The people that sold it to me were awesome and sent me a replacement for free, but I think the new one has the same issue.-

Ah, crap I'm too late and the answer is gone...um... so does it include it's own cable and what kind will I need? I'm looking at this "RG6 Premium Solid Copper Quad-shield Coaxial Cable" does anyone know if that's the right kind for this antenna?

The one I purchased included the GXM 30 antenna. It was for the GPS and XM radio. That's where the initials for the antenna come from. Good luck

Do you think you are smarter than the Asian engineers that designed this aircraft? lol I uncoiled mine thinking that straightening it out would help with range, but only made it worse. I kind of remember something about a "coil" antenna from my electronics training years ago. Your best bet is to just leave it alone and upgrade to a better aircraft when ready.

The Antenna I purchased came with the amplifier. Check and see what the model you are looking at states as some do not come with the booster.

You may purchase as many as you would like. This kit comes with the complete antenna assembly, without an LNB. They are sold as kits--as the parts without a reflector are of no value.

Not this particular product. You'll have to buy the antenna separate, or buy the Street Atlas that includes the antenna. They run around $50.

it comes with everything you need but I would not recommend it. Pricey for what it does. I get the same reception on a $20 antenna. I do not live far from broadcast stations & yet everytime the wind blows we loose reception

If this is same item I ordered it is the antenna with mount included. You do not need to purchase a separate mount.
