Works well with PRO505XL, strong base, long cable.

Works well with the Uniden radio I purchased and the cord is long enough to run from the back of my sedan through the trunk to the dash where the spare length radio is located. The magnet is strong and I've had no problem moving it around while riding and I don't see any problems unless you risk hitting a branch with it knocking it over so I wedged it between the bars. my roof rack and no more problems.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Damaged

Great antenna for travelers

Simple design, quality parts and a magnet that needs a bit more weight and grip (reason for 4 stars). Trunk mounted, only 1 inch of cable exits the trunk (try to keep that distance to a minimum in case it breaks!) and 400+ miles at 70+ miles per hour. No problem. Didn't move at all. I threw away the rubber boot. Instead I used Oracle color matched vinyl to protect the paintwork. The SWR readings were 1.4 omnidirectional with a couple of clips (small bolt cutters work best) from the pin itselfโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Magnet is underestimated! suitable for portable audio and video equipment

This antenna connects to Midland 1001LWX; together they work very well. I keep the radio, external speaker, DC adapter and SWR meter in a small box in the trunk, ready for a quick 2 minute installation. Because. I only use it when I'm driving next to another vehicle. Super comfortable. Also, I have a 120VAC to 6A 15VDC converter at home so I can use it on my kitchen counter. I just thought you'd like to know. So the antenna magnet is very strong at 80 mph. I mean 75 miles an hour. I am notโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Robust version
Cons
  • old

Fantastic antenna for CB and radio equipment

It arrived in a cardboard box large enough to accommodate its very long dimensions. There was no corner to fight. I installed it on my 2007 Ford Focus, roof first which gave me amazing reception. Then I remembered I had to go into the garage, which is limited to 6ft 8in, so I relocated the antenna to my tiny trunk lid. If you've ever seen the trunk lid of a 2007 Ford Focus, you'll understand why I was concerned. CB antennas rely on the metal surface beneath them to help them transmit. Theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Requires socket

CB antenna with large magnetic mount.

Bought this to work with the new Cobra CB radio. The radio was junk, but this antenna is great. The magnet is very strong, the whip is well made. Has been used outdoors daily for some time and has not corroded or changed its electrical properties. It was easy to set up and the latex boot on the bottom helps keep your car looking good. The only reason I gave it a low rating is the latex boot on the bottom, it's starting to fall apart. Some other types have a huge sticker at the bottom, othersโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Quality workmanship
Cons
  • Hard to say
