Looking for a new antenna

Mine is dialed in. Nice antenna though. Good job.

 

Leaves me out..

 

Dont see how a short shafted siro will out do a 10k which has been compared and equaled a 102 whip..
Then again i have so much yet to learn..If it makes my set up better ill try a siro.

 

As soon as your system is stable and you figured out whatever is wrong and you're happy with what you achieved I'll be more than happy to donate one to you

 

That guy with the Dodge truck that lives in Allentown has major issues with his antenna system on his personal vehicle something to do probably with bonding but his Freightliner Classic he was able to talk 54 miles with his Predator 10-K and I donated an antenna for his Freightliner and he is extremely happy with it he said he can hear much better with less noise in his receive than the aluminum Predator 10-K

 

Rabbi..At the rate im goin ill never have it figured out...When i get some down time on my trip to laurens s carolina,im gonna switch to my dueled coiled 10k and run a short shaft on it as well....Ill leave it attached to my tall ant mount and see if the door/windshield post will help for ground plane any..
Im guessing that its the same idea hard drive was tryin to tell me a ways back

 

There's a guy on here somewhere that put a 4-foot shaft underneath a Sirio 5000 on a Freightliner Cascadia and it works great

 

Other than the dipole that marks sez no to,i dont know anything else to try other than some of the stuff i see on youtube vids and this and one other forum..

 

Stainless steel 9 foot whip is the best thing for testing purposes and if you can't get that antenna to function properly you have some serious underlying issues that need to get rectified before trying any other antenna

 

What else did he do though cause that mount i have is 40" then a 22" shaft on my 10k plus the inch or so on marks ant stud..Even with my ant leaned to about 20 or so deg im pretty much sittin at 13'6" ish now..
