Review on πŸ“Ά Enhance Your Marine Communication with the Shakespeare 5101 Centennial White 8' VHF Marine Antenna by Michael Wehrman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Functional, practical, inexpensive, easy to install.

I had to replace an existing similar antenna due to a boating accident that damaged my previous one. I was able to reinstall the new antenna set in less than 30 minutes. Soldering skills are required to make the final connection of the plug to the back of the radio after the wire has been routed to the desired location. Quite easy. Request a 'radio check' on VHF channel 16 to confirm it was working and was immediately given a resounding 'radio check loud and clear skipper' from a boatmate.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • No
