Buy it, you'll be glad you did ! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Learned about these mounts from K0BG website.

Don't take any chances with those wanna be
mounts. Why trust your new $ 300 + antenna to
that imported junk ?

These mounts and the matched plate set are the real deal,
given the thinner gage sheet metal used in cars today,
you need this mount or your antenna will be history.
It will outlast any vehicle you bolt it on.

The only way to go! Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
There is not much to say other than if you're looking to mount an HF mobile antenna, this is the way to go!!! Made strong, and to last.

I researched many types of mounts for a heavy HiQ4/80 screwdriver to be mounted off my pickup rail. I choose this, after asking several questions of Jerry, and always being greeted with a willingness to help a fellow ham.

Let me say this though: I have the over the rail mount, and it does not hang out far enough from the rail in that with the coax adapter mounted the Pl-259 damaged the Chevy fender. I will be now ordering the raised mount that sits off the rail and not over the side. Measure better than I did if you order the over the side mount.

My HiQ flexes the mount a little, but is secure with his quick disconnect. No worries.

A-One stuff! Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
I have been using their quick disconnects for several years. Unlike some of their competition, these don't come loose with use, and they make positive contact every time.

I've also used their ballmounts with great success. I've never had any problems with any of their mounts, but when I call I always get Jerry which gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling.
