> 24 hourWith the 3 axis adjustment, this mount will connect to almost any point that has a lip. Nice, solid mount.

> 24 hourBought a glass car and need to have a hatch mount for my cx-224 antenna. 1st time using it seems pretty sturdy even with my tri band antenna on it.

> 24 hourWe certainly like the mount. However they barely fit the lip of the rear hatch on a Dodge Journey. They fit, however just barely. Grounding is an issue and loss of paint from opening and closing the hatch. The second mount we received had a loose NMO mount insert that we had to secure. The insert became lodged in the antenna and we had a heck of a time removing the insert to reinstall on the NMO mount, with thread lock. All in all, it beats drilling holes, dropping headliners, etc. You have to keep a constant eye on these mounts, but they work.

> 24 hourThe pl259 is supposed to be the type you can take apart for easy routing. My pl259 came apart in one place, at the ferrule. Nothing else would unscrew or come apart. Had to cut it because its cheap junk metal that distorts when you breathe on it. Wish it actually did come apart for easy routing. Guess Im ordering connectors and not using my transceiver until the parts come in now.

> 24 hourI will admit putting it on and getting the antenna to stand up correctly took some time but it was well worth it. This mount stayed on and never needed adjustment. I used it 3 years until I sold the car. When I took it off there were no tell tale marks where it had been. I reinstalled it on my new truck with out any trouble. I have a 2m/70 cm antenna on it.

> 24 hourThe best product I’ve ever bought. The smaller feed line section closest the antenna was a brilliant idea. The mount itself is well made and heavy duty. I put my SSB2 NMO antenna from Comet and I was full quieting into our Club repeater. I got tired of my roof mounted with drilled hole getting knocked of and finally making me have a body shop fill in the hole and repaint roof. The only challenge is getting an Allen wrench to tighten the small set screws. Highly recommended product. N9NY Fast forward three weeks. I broke the tightening wing nut that locks the antenna angle into place. Ugh! E-mailed HamCity who sold the antenna mount asking what can be done. HamCity contacted Comet on my behalf and four days later I had the replacement part at no charge. That’s great customer service! Thank you!

> 24 hourPerfect use for my low band and VHF antennas to still be able to fit into my garage. Works awesome that they mounted right to the side mounts of a BackRack

> 24 hourI remove the antenna and cover the mount with an NMO rain cap when I go through the car wash. I also switch between a 1/4 wavelength and 1/2 wavelength antenna, depending on terrain. About 40 antenna length for the 1/2 wave. I grounded the mount to the hood, and I achieve about 1.2 SWR at 145.460 MHz with the 1/4 wave antenna. I am very pleased with the mounts performance.
