3.0 out of 5 stars Antenna only has 14' of coax and no coax connector, January 9, 2006

I have not had the antenna connected to the radio yet so I won't know how well it does till boating season, however I was disappointed it only has 14.5 feet of coax and did not come with a connector to attach to the radio. A local radio shop wanted $25 to install the connector. I got a local ham to do it for $15. A previous antenna had about 25 foot of coax and had a connector alread installed. I hope I can route the coax and make it work with only 14.5 foot of coax

I bought this antenna to replace the same model that I broke off going under a bridge. It was simple to replace and I was able to splice the coax cable by buying a PL-258 connector. The new antenna works great.

This antenna is working great. I am very satisfied with performance especially given the reasonable price.
