The codan 9350 consists of 3 parts basically, the outer waterproof black shell, the internal electronics/controller/motor drive and the tuning coil and tuning mechanism. We first connected the antenna up to a test set on the bench and confirmed the tuning issues, the instant failure below 10Mhz and hunting above this frequency. The CODAN 9350 Automatic Tuning Whip HF Antenna is designed for mobile operation with CODAN HF transceivers that have a large channel capacity. The 9350 Automatic Tuning Whip Antenna is designed for maximum durability and reliability in demanding mobile military operations. Codan's 9350 Antenna is designed to be used with transceivers that have a large channel capacity. The 9350 Antenna includes two whip top sections.

Typically, the 9350 takes only a few seconds to tune to any frequency. It will seek the optimum tuning point for all operating conditions — this ensures the best communications possible.
