How does the antenna attach to the mount? I have a nice stainless mount that works with the other tram female thread antenna bases. Will this work?

I believe that it is an exact fit. I did not have to use the bracket that comes with it. It just screwed on the the old one that was broke. Hope this helps

It attaches with a nut. that said, I would never buy again either from that vendor nor from Amazon. I bought the antenna originally with a "Free freight" tag on the order page. when I got it they had charged me a 75$ freight rate on a twenty five dollar antenna. When I complained they each blamed the other and I got no satisfaction from either. My credit card company did nothing for me either. My advice is to buy from a vendor who will stand up for you, like ebay.

I can't help you with mounts. The Firestik antenna base itself is standard male screw in. Whatever current antenna you have, provided it's screwed in, unscrew, and screw in the Firestik.

I am looking at my 5.8G cheapdrone antennas right now. Both antennas are equipped with Male-RPSMA connectors. this means " no pin in center and threads on the inside of the connector collar, which can spin around." but they DO come with a pair of adapters (that change the connecter to a Male-SMA ),and one 90 degree adapter. note: SMA is the style of connect and the RP means "reverse polarity" which is a really not a very good way of saying that the pin is in the opposite connector body compared to a standard SMA connector setup.

The antenna mounts facing down. As long as the antenna isnt too long it works fine.

The antenna it self will work ...the external bezel mounting may be tricky but should work

What I did was go to Home Depot and buy a threaded 1" O.D. pipe. I also got an adapter there that steps the 1" up to 1 1/8" or 1/14"...either is okay. I then bought a rubber union with two hose clamps attached to it. I inserted the 1" pipe into the adapter, and the adapter into the rubber union. I fastened one clamp on the adapter, the other end onto the 1+1/2" antenna mast. I bought silver paint to match the mast and the parts....and the black rubber union. Paited it all, hooked the antenna up to the 1" pipe...Voila...done!

Little further explanation, it screws off the base so you should be able to screw it onto your base as long as the threads are the same which I believe they would be. Have not seen an antenna with a base any different than another in regards to the threads being metric or standard. Been a solid antenna.Hope this helps.

just use the L shaped part of te antenna mount and bolt it to the bed or toolbox the only problems is the coax cord is to sort because the kit is meant for mirror mounts

The base has a raised ring around it, so my Nagoya antenna from my UV-5R will not fit. I have a high gain MFJ-1717s antenna that fits snugly inside the raised ring and performs very well.

The small aluminum pipe that holds the antenna (via 2 small bolts) is ~6" long, and the antenna comes with 2 clamps that fit this tube and then attach to a 1-1/2" pipe you provide. Yes, the antenna has a PL-259 (UHF) Female connector inside the mounting tube. I was somewhat disappointed that the clearance between the PL-259 Male connector and the aluminum tube was negligible, to the point that no weatherproofing can be applied, not even one wrap of tape. I ended up caulking the tube at the top.

I went ahead and bought the mount. It works fine with the bumpers on my i4. In fact, I have to say I prefer it to the original Satechi mount I used for my 3Gs previously. I recommend it, for what that's worth.

The antenna comes with clamps to mount it to a mast, an adapter to use antenna cable and that is all. You will need some kind of roof mount and a mast. Hope that helps.

Yes. It works perfectly. As I stated in my recent review it is mislabeled. It should read that it is a 3 5/8" mount. They left off the 3. It is an excellent NMO mount as it will hold up well in wind with that antenna and with the rubber base it protects your finish as long as you take it off and clean under it every month or so. It's a good idea to move it too so it isn't in the exact same footprint forever so as to prevent sun fading around that spot.

Your standard mag mount antenna will connect directly to this radio it comes equipped with the po239 hookup wich is the female side of the pl259 connector I have this radio installed in my trailblazer and used the tram mobile mount dual band that is here on amazon for $16 that antenna only has a 12 foot cable so you may need an extension depending on your radio to antenna location distance it worked fine in our car ran through the door trim but is pulled tight in my SUV

Does it have 3 threaded extentions for the antennas to attach to? Then, yes

Yes. It has a Allen Wrench set screw that will hold it 90 degrees (L shape). Yes, you either have a bracket to mount it in or you drill a hole the size shown in the instructions for the mounting base and the cable to go through, I believe it is 1/2 inch diameter. I used a bracket the was predrilled. This is a good antenna, works just fine on my motorcycle.

Hi RAS: It's been over a year since I installed mine, but I vaguely remember a similar concern. As I remember, I also expected a tight fit like a sleeve over the antenna fitting, but then I realized that the U-bolts are what really holds the two parts together (via the bracket, which is firmly attached to the antenna). Just don't overtighten them (you'll start to see the pipe collapsing).
