Monkey Made MM-9 Medium

2 weeks with mine and other than the weight of it shakes my mirror a little at higher speed it is performing very well.
I get nothing but reports my radio sounds "top shelf and blowing smoke"
I think i will run it for now unless my mirror falls apart....lol! It is a heavy antenna.

It is doing good talking DX........Skip was rolling in Florida the other night and i talked to Boston.

 

I ended up cutting about 4 or 5 inches off to get the SWR right.....It is still working good.

 

I have already trimmed a few trees with it......It did not harm the antenna at all.

 

Yes,but nothing drastic.
I believe the MM-9 does hear a little better.

As far as distance talking the MM-9 does about 30 miles while i was on the interstate and talking to a base unit.
The Wilson could do that also.My radio is doing 135 watts or better for PEP output so i think either antenna works well with my radio.

The only negative of the MM is the stress it puts on the mirror brackets......It is about a 3 lb antenna or it feels like it compared to the Wilson.

 

I hear ya! To me it would not be worth the cost for a dual setup.
Those Wilsons on your truck with the 10 inch shaft are probably doing a fine job.

Yea Colorato.....i bet it was fun mounting it to a Cascadia. They don't have a top mirror bracket do they?
