does the mast separate from the mount? I'm just looking for a shorty antenna for my motorcycle instead of the 2 foot tall one that comes with it. O

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.

I doubt that size mast will work it has a pretty small hole and has bolts to tighten it down the thing is pretty cheaply made to I sent mine back

then answer this question that means I have to dismantle my antenna. to be honest with you I'm not happy with the bracket. it was a terrible fit for my truck and I found myself modifying it with a ball peen hammer. if you're going to look for a bracket I recommend you to go to a truck stop and check out what they have. for me it was a waste of time and money. I'm sorry that I could not give you a direct answer

No, the short antenna is bent just a bit and goes straight back up, after a bit, when cover is removed. Has saved my new car from kitty prints and scratches

I used two 8' tall 2 3/8" chain link poles bolted together to get 16 feet up (that was high enough for me to get a good signal...I did not have to use any guide wires to hold the mast as it bolted about halfway up to the eve of the house and was sturdy enough without them..I did have to bend the "U" clamps a little to get them to fit around the pole..I could not find a 2" pole which is what it I think it was designed for...I looked for an "antennae" pole but could not find one at Lowes, Home Depot or Radio Shack that I thought would be sturdy enough or tall enough for my situation. Also the outside booster was a bit larger than what I was expecting but it did not weigh much...

There is a fold up hangar which I use, but it's really for a temporary mount. Great unit, very well pleased with it. Currently hooked up to my motorchcle for the winter.

There is a bracket that looks a little like a muffler clamp to attach to a mast/pole. Manufacturers page for antenna: http://www.antennasdirect.com/cmss_files/attachmentlibrary/AntennasDirect_DB2e%20QuickStart_Rev.pdf

Separate. Why would you want the connector attached? That would require a huge hole to pass-through. The instructions are clear and installing the connector is easy. BTW, I have a 23' runabout and the 8 ft mast is overkill, the 4' would have been just fine.

This item is only 5 feet long which is too short for my chimney top mount. So, I returned this item and get a 10' long mast. This mast has no thread and may not be able to fit into other mast. If you need to combine several mast with thread to a longer one, I would suggest you go check the hardware or home improvement stores.

There is no way to disconnect the coax from the antenna. Mine performs as expected for a G5RV. Well made. It has survived several severe storms and doing well so far this winter. Honestly, one could be made for a lot less, but if you are not into homebrew, I would recommend this as the price is decent for the quality. Using it a Yaesu FT-857 and YT-100 Tuner. Tunes good, but not the best antenna I've used for "all bands".Hope this helps!KC9QVGAlex L

I really can't answer that with accuracy. Mine came with brackets to mount on a round pole as well as the ability to mount on the dual square bars of the typical RV crank up mast. I guess you could always cut the square tubes short and just leave in the up position if you want the antenna nearly flat on the roof. Personally, I want the antenna as high as I can get it.

My antenna attached to this mount with 2 u-bolts that came with the antenna. The u-bolts clamp around the upper end of the mount.

Yes. The antenna doesn't come with the mount. It is a standard attachment, so it should attach to most antenna mounts. Here is one on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Style-Marine-Mount-Antenna-Radar/dp/B000S5VBG4/ref=sr_1_2?s=boating-water-sports&ie=UTF8&qid=1404392614&sr=1-2&keywords=marine+antenna+mount

Mine is mounted on a 40 foot mast, and I just grounded my mast not the antenna.

If you use the tripod for its designed purpose of support for a satellite dish,you should not need a longer mast since the signal is coming from a low earth orbiting satellite. With a five foot length mast, the wind may topple it unless you stake the feet to the ground. A longer mast would require guy wires.

Mine is mounted as an in-verted Von a pole and is only 4 feet above ground. The Di Pole is even with my metal roof. Works like a CHAMP. Everyone in my HAM Radio Club loves it. I use the Di Pole for my CB. I live on top of a hill, overlooking Oneida Lake , and the radio works great. I have a 40` tall antenna for my SSB Radio and a Copper J-Pole for my HAM RADIO. Hope this helps.......Cecil KD2GlU.

No. I bought brass grommets large enough that would fit over antenna then positioned cover on trike with antennas removed and centered them in relationship with the seams of the cover. I gave it a little slack and then installed the grommets. It works great and it's actually easier to put on because I have something to align the cover with the rear portion of the Trike. Certainly cheaper than the one that has a Harley-Davidson emblem on it. Happy and Safe Riding......
