Its on a puck mount on the roof of a 2010 Jeep Liberty Renegade. 5ft is the max length I can have to get in my driveway without taking it down because of the electric line to the house. Also, when I want to shoot skip I have a 108 ss whip or a 102 inch whip with a 12in adjuster/ riser on the...

So never saw one like this. Any experienced ones think this 5ft is better than a 5ft SkipShooter? I need a 5ft 4in or less and narrowed it down to my 5ft SkipShooter or...

Yes I chose the Skipshooter as an option because of the size of the winding wire at that length, so far is the thickest than the others.

Thanks I have a 102 and a 108 inch and use a 12 inch adjuster/riser, and I hate springs. I do use one of the two on the roof when not moving and shooting skip. As per the post I have a height restriction and at this time have those two I am asking opinions about.

My Antenna only can be no longer than 5ft 4inches for total tuned height. I am using a Puck Mount on the roof of a 2010 Jeep Liberty Renegade. I have a 5ft Skipshooter and a Tram SP-63 Open Coil. If you had a choice technically, which would you choose of the two to get out and receive the best...

Mine goes down to 1.5 watts untouched from Yeti. Everyone and their family says to get the ICOM mic for it. If you do, I would do research as to the correct one to buy because there are a ton of reprods out there. I'm using the stock one. I was told I was loud on both AM and LSB. AM mod was...

Yes. Bought it from Yeti. Had it for a couple weeks. Just hooked it up this past week. Talked on it 3 times. Works perfectly. Cost me $350, although I did get a first quote of $380 there(for any future buyers from their site). I re-emailed them again because I forgot the price and they replied...

LOL! How much you offering????

Just bought Optima MKIII from yeti site Just got one of these bad boys and it works great. $350 shipping included. I had it tuned from Yeti before they sent it. I am using the radio/stock mike with rg213 coax with a whip and adjuster, stud mounted trunk center. SWR's are at 1.4 on 1 and 40...

Ok so today. I took off all the 3ft ground straps i posted i had i did a shorter setup for the ground to trunk, picture attached (not my picture, but i did the same thing with a piece of my straps). also i went and got some plastic washers and "upgraded" the plastic washer that came with the...

KM3F. FYI I am not that great at doing this stuff. It's hard to find and CB service shops around here in Secaucus NJ. I quickly looked up the antenna analyzer and they go for 100+$ and I am not sure if I would know what to do with it, even if I did buy it. I understand what you are saying about...

That's the mount I'll be able to get some pics up on Saturday or Sunday. It is set up correctly however if that's your query.

I can, but it will have to be Sunday. I'll be posting pics of everything then, if it's still not solved. I'm no expert but usually my setups have gone smooth and I have done whips before. I drilled a whole in the center of my trunk I was so confident, lol. Believe me that stud is installed...

My antenna was 102 inches -4 had been cut off. I have it in a 12 inch antenna adjuster on a stud mount. The antenna bottom is about 4 inches from the top of the adjuster, making it at about 106 inches total length right now from the mount to the top of the antenna. I'm not to worried about...

I checked everything with a meter, all are where they should be as far as readings. Someone else on another forum did mention about a stud mount.

I am using 2 1 inch wide 3ft long braided with ring connectors on the trunk deck on each side where the trunk is connected to the hinge arm, to car body. I checked grounds from the bottom of the mount to the coax ground side then the bottom of the mount to the trunk, then the coax ground side to...

Hi I forgot to mention I have a 12 inch adjuster between the stud mount and antenna and the antenna is all the way to the top. The reading is matched between 1 and 40 with or without the trunk open, it's just high when it's closed. The antenna is prob around 106 inches now and i am using a...

I finally got all my stuff together to install my new radio set up in my car (2000 Grand Marquis LS) and something weird is going on with my SWR. I have an Optima MKIII radio brand new on a 3ft/meter/9ft coax set up with a stud mount and a 102 inch whip centered on my trunk. My SWR's are around...
