i can add i will not do another review on it. this one broke to me catching a tree at speed so it was my fault, i got another one and that one broke on its own. it was great having the 4 bands but these days i would rather have a single antenna for each band
At least you still have all the parts to yours. Mine fell apart whilst I was driving along the A46 (dual carriageway) with about 5 trucks behind me so not even worth stopping to collect the bits.
Goeie afternoon, my antenna is gelyk aan die model aangebied vm-9000, maar ek het twyfel wanneer maak die grou behoorlik want ek het 'n probleem met die hoë stilstaan. (V. S. W. R.: minus 2.0 tot 2.5)
@@wowsly Is the plastic bit abt. 12 inches up have any kind of coil or is it just to separate those two parts of the ant. All the threads are stripped on the one I have and it looks just like it's just plastic.
@@ronaldbogard3358 from memory it was a coil in the form of a spring. I don't use this antenna anymore. I think its been a few years since I have used it. It's in storage 400nile away so I can't check
Here we are, 6 years later, and you are the only person who has done a review on this antenna.

I like the idea of it folding over - I've bent too many antennae forgetting they're up there... Thanks for the review and take care, mate!

1/2/24 thanks for the video
Thanks for that Simon, appreciated.
Thanks for this, useful information.
Excellent review
I'm hope mine doesn't die as it works fantastic. hope you can fix it.
Mine worked great until I shattered the 10m fiberglass coil in the door.

how much did you have to adjust the SWR on the low bands?
Thank you
Did you use this as a mag mount or fixed to the van body?
Nice👍🏻
How Do YOU tune for the different bands?
The bit at the top slides up and down

You did not tell us a thing about the antenna thought this was a review
What is the best way to tune this antenna?
I found a document for diamond cr8900, in there they say also to move the bottom part, it is not the same?
Can you make a video on how to tune please?
no sound
Just checked and there's no sound , had sound with the advert then it went .
this ant has no gain, its sucks, rip off
