Milkman21218, it works and I only did it because of the added magnets on the underside,  my 145 mag mount is solid man, even with the larger diameter whip it's solid.  I would not have done it if I thought it would not have worked as far as weight was concerned anyway.  Like you said to each his own.  I did make contact with another station 70+ miles away this morning, from port orange, fl to west side of Ocala, fl. Seems like the larger whip is working well for me anyway as I have never talked that far locally in my mobile.  It's flat down here and to talk that far and hold a good conversation was pretty neat I think , for a mobile with a magnum 257hp and a sirio pl5000 with a 102" ss cut whip.  Anyway, thanks for all the replies and concern.  It is very much appreciate from all as I am learning something new everyday.  God bless and happy holidays.
