I am awaiting the arrival of the Opek HVU200 quad band mobile antenna I ordered last week and am trying to get everything else in place for the install. I have decided on a mag mount for now due to the fact that I will eventually move the FT-8900 from my Jeep to my truck. So my question is this: where can I find a three mag or preferably quad magnet mount (greatest amount of capacitive coupling) with a PL259 fitting for the Opek antenna?
I am also somewhat confused about the antenna connection. The specs on their website say PL259 connector, but does that mean that it screws onto a SO239 female coax terminator, or that a PL259 coax fitting screws onto a SO239 receiver fitting which is on the antenna? Perhaps someone could also chime in on this as well.
