the UHF antenna is NOT included and must be purchased separately. This mount is designed to work with standard UHF antennas featuring compatible thread fittings (most common UHF antennas). When purchasing antenna separately, verify thread compatibility and mounting requirements. The included PL259 adaptor accommodates most common UHF antenna base fittings. We can recommend compatible antennas if needed - contact us for antenna recommendations matching your vehicle and application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can I use the 5m pre-fitted cable or do I need to replace it with longer cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eA: The 5 metres coaxial cable is permanently pre-fitted to the mount and cannot be easily replaced or extended without cutting and re-terminating connections (not recommended as it affects warranty and signal quality). Before purchasing, measure routing distance from intended antenna mounting location to radio location ensuring 5m is sufficient. Typical routing (roof mount to interior radio) usually requires 4-6m. If your installation requires longer cable, consider alternative mounting locations closer to radio or different mount with longer cable option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What's the advantage of the ratchet fold-down feature?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eA: The ratchet fold-down mechanism provides significant practical benefits: (1) lower antenna for garage entry without removing antenna entirely; (2) fold down for automatic car washes preventing antenna damage; (3) reduce height for low-clearance obstacles (parking structures, drive-throughs); (4) storage position when vehicle parked reducing vandalism risk or wind resistance; (5) controlled positioning with ratchet prevents free-swinging or uncontrolled movement. The double hinge allows folding backward or forward depending on installation.
