The Raymarine Magnum 6-Foot Open Array (Antenna ONLY) is the largest individual antenna bar component designed for the Magnum radar series. Mounting this 6-foot bar onto a high-output 12kW Magnum Pedestal (E70487) creates Raymarine’s most powerful magnetron radar configuration, delivering maximum signal penetration and surgical target separation.

Key Performance Advantages (12kW Pair)

• Ultimate Target Separation: The 6-foot antenna bar delivers a razor-sharp 1.15° nominal horizontal beamwidth. When paired with the 12kW pedestal’s digital processing, Raymarine’s beam sharpening narrows the effective bearing resolution to less than 1°, allowing you to distinguish closely spaced targets (like channel markers, pilings, or adjacent vessels) even at extreme ranges.

• Maximum Power Penetration: Driven by the 12kW pedestal’s massive pulse energy, the radar easily punctures heavy downpours, dense fog, and sea clutter to clearly resolve small or weak targets that lower-wattage systems might miss.

• Extreme Long Range: Unlocks the radar’s maximum operational tracking scale of up to 96 nautical miles, providing commercial-grade performance for offshore navigation, coastal landfalls, and tracking distant weather cells.

• Elite Bird Mode: The high gain and narrow beamwidth of the 6-foot array maximize the system’s specialized bird tracking algorithms, allowing serious offshore tournament anglers to locate flocks of foraging seabirds up to 10 nautical miles away.
