Questions & Answers

What if I have a 1997 BMW Z3? Will this device work?

It is true that this kind of antenna can be mounted on almost any type of car.

Can you tell me how long the cable is?

I would like to let you know that the length of cable is 1 ft. There are 3 meters between each other. The height is 51 inches. Here are some references for you.

The stainless steel you are referring to is type 316?

Yes, the stainless steel base is made of 316.

Would an extension cable be available for this item so that I can mount it on the roof of my garage for a car stereo in the garage?

It's the same thing, except I am building a box to put the old car stereo into. Top of the box is where the antenna mounts. In order to build the box, I connected everything first to verify that the antenna functions. As long as the antenna was located in my basement, it picked up all my stations. (Unless the building is entirely metal with a metal roof, you probably won't need to put it on the roof of the garage). An idea just crossed my mind.

It won't improve reception due to faulty design
3/5

In a marine environment, it will corrode. Although the design is poor, it should work in the same way as connecting a bare wire to a Or to put it another way, do not buy, especially It has painted the two pieces of the joint on the black model. If this is the case, then no, or only very weak FM signals will pass from antenna to radio (the white model may differ). With a multimeter, I found that there is no continuity unless a large portion of the paint were scraped off, which would cause the metal to rust.

The description states "Flexible mast180-degree rotation. ". Swivel base for maximum mobility, easy to swing back and forth", but the base actually doesn't swivel (unless the screw isn't tightened down all the way), and the 180 degree bend only works if you have a screwdriver available. It also claims that this is a dipole antenna, which I doubt, but even if it were, the base would not be shielded, so any advantage a dipole would give you is pretty much negated. Water can get trapped at many points in the antenna, corroding the connections and causing the connections to break down. The entire antenna is held together by zinc coated threaded rod. Stay far away from this antenna, because there is NOTHING correct about its design. Neither the designers nor those who came up with the design do have anything to do with radios or electronics. Most of the identical models available for sale on Amazon will follow this rule. You would do yourself a favor if you bought a better.

I use this on my car and it works fine! The 2011 Toyota Corolla LE was fitted with this
5/5

The antenna in the rear window is typical of many models of cars, and I did not like the reception of the radio in this one. With only an hour of installation, I was able to install this antenna on my car and it works amazing A plastic support piece at the bottom and RTV around the gasket were then attached with RTV. The use of gaskets alone is never reliable for me. As the antenna mast is very flexible, I wonder how much it'll move on a highway. It was designed for a boat, so it may move a lot. In the event that there are any issues, I will update. In other words, this helped some signals, but also didn't help others. -I purchased a signal booster (AC - This book is called "HT01" (Amazon ASIN - 13637380092) This is the B07F71XXP5) and now I can pick just about anything up! When compared to my aftermarket stereo, which has an indicator for signal strength, this antenna and booster easily doubled the signal from almost every station!.

For my boat, this is a nice antenna
5/5

It is great to be able to pivot. The installation is a piece of cake, however, the mounting stud is a bit short, so watch out if you have a mounting surface thicker than 3/8 to 1/2 inch or so, you will run out of threading. My angle was slightly less than 1/4, and it worked fine. The pivot feature is really nice, with it being able to rake back to keep in line with my windshield angle. The company has about 3 employees Having 4 feet of cord, I could plug it right into the standard antenna port on the back of my stereo head unit for marine use. A crystal-clear signal can be heard on radio stations.

You need to beware of cracking on this stupid easy and decent quality for price
3/5

This is what the title says. Due to its system of coming apart at different places on the mast, I can easily take it off and replace it. As a point of note, I would recommend picking up a 3/8" x 1" If you want more stability and sealing on your mount, you can use a 14" fender washer. The following update has been made Nearly 6 months after it was installed on my car, the entire antenna is fading white and the rubber mast is cracking. As you can see, the floor is greying and stains, and it needs to be replaced. I had to replace it after it barely lasted a summer, fall and the beginning of winter on my car, for something that is supposed to withstand the elements. It is not something I would consider buying.

It is a piece of junk, poorly made, and does not What you pay for is what you get
3/5

There is a lot of metal on the mounting base that is not even painted, and the antenna is very poorly made. Despite being tightened down, the plastic on the base sticks out, making it also rock back and forth. Having done all that, I connected it up to my TV and found no It was actually better to operate my radio without a radio Try another product from a different company first. This one does not work. I suggest you stay away from it.

Due to this item's excellent performance as expected, I ordered another one of the same type/style
5/5

The item I purchased was an FM Radio Antenna so I could use it inside my home with an OEM Radio Cassette player that belongs to a Cadillac deville. The antenna is capable of receiving many FM stations and I can also receive videos on YouTube. After receiving this item, I ordered another item of the same type/style because it did the job perfectly as expected. I appreciate your help. Two years ago on January 18, 2018, Hevtor, New Jersey.

This is a rooftop installation on a large environmental truck that has worked great so far
4/5

I was able to receive local stations after installing the antenna. The installation was made on the roof of an oversized This antenna was used to replace the factory antenna that broke. I installed it in the existing 3/4" socket. The very small stud/nut pairing was not to my taste, but the rest of the assembly went It is my intention to follow up if it fails.

Sholls is there to save the day! Taking this thing apart and putting it back together is a breeze
3/5

It is a bad thing that once it is installed, it doesn't seem to do much. Paint is used on all connections, so they are zero conductivity There is an antenna pole. The reception is no better or worse than when there is Your money is worth saving. There is nothing to learn from these other reviews they're all.
