About Tram Antennas
Tram is a long-running antenna manufacturer based in Tennessee, founded 1953. Famous for HAM radio, CB, and specialty long-range antennas. In recent years, their LRA (Long Range Antenna) series has become THE standard upgrade for serious dog tracking system users, extending Garmin Astro/Alpha and Dogtra Pathfinder handheld range from ~3 miles to 9-12+ miles. Tram also makes the marine VHF antennas that boat owners and marine professionals trust for reliable communication.
Dog Tracking Range, Antenna Upgrades Make a Massive Difference
- Stock Garmin/Dogtra handheld antenna = ~3 miles typical range
- + Tram LRA antenna = up to 9-12 miles in good terrain
- + Vehicle-mounted antenna (Fender/Hood/Magnet) = even further range, monitor from inside vehicle
For houndsmen running far, bird dogs working big country, or any extended-range tracking application, the antenna upgrade chain is the difference between losing your dogs and tracking them reliably. Most serious dog handlers run a vehicle-mounted antenna with cable to handheld for both maximum range AND handheld portability.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why a vehicle-mounted antenna?
Higher antenna placement on the vehicle = significantly extended range vs handheld antenna. While dogs are running far, you can stay in the truck and monitor on the handheld via a cable connection to the much-better-positioned vehicle antenna.
Fender vs Hood Mount?
Fender Mount: drills through fender, low-profile, less prone to interference from hood. Hood Mount: drills through hood, higher position. Both work, pick based on truck setup and personal preference.
Permanent install:
Drills a hole through the fender. NOT removable without leaving a hole. For temporary/no-drill alternative, see the Triple Mag Ground Plane (magnetic mount).
Antenna NOT included:
This is the MOUNT and CABLE only. Need to purchase the LRA antenna separately ($19.99) or use existing NMO-compatible antenna.
