    No such thing as a 50 ohm purely resistive mobile antenna.
    They don't exist.
    Fortunately we can do things to make it appear so.

    Well, I need to know the "exact" threads cause I'm going to pick up a stainless steel rod and going to have the thread made. I'm opting for a longer shaft. Right now I'm running the original Wilson 2000 I had around 30 years and it came with the shortest shaft they put out for the time.
