This coax cable was not up to standard and radio performance with it severely lacked range, with two different antennae. Much better coax cables are available. Returned

Helps my older Sportys hand-held transmit farther - so far demonstrated ten miles to a distant unicom.

Thank you David for the review of our Windshield Antenna Kit. The BNC connections should result in a positive click if the connections are within spec. While vibrations can cause suction cup loss of adhesion in some instances, the BNC connection should always be rock solid. You will find the BNC connection very tight initially as this is by design. You may find after about 10 installation cycles that the rubber duck antenna connection becomes more refined and definitive as the nubs on the BNC connector settle into their intended detent-locked position. I would be more than happy to send out a replacement free of charge as your satisfaction is paramount as well which can be coordinated through Aircraft Spruce. Thank you for the terrific review of my product too ! - Rob, Owner, A&P Mechanic, Private Pilot.

The product was just as advertised and Im very happy with what I received. One side note, I did notice my handheld antenna did not lock solidly in place when attached. Vibration when flying did allow it to start working itself free. Im yet to have it just fall off its attachment, but I also always check it as a pre and post flight check list. Still very pleased with the product.

This antenna kit is so helpful when I’m driving on an active airfield. I don’t know how I would manage without it.

worked great - replaced the suction cup with adel clamp to tube in the windshield - greatly improved reception in my T-craft

This cable does just what you think it should, it lets you move your antennae away from your handheld. I put my antennae out the door, and it stopped the squealing interference I had when I pushed the PPT on my intercom. Apparently, the ICOM handheld antennae was too close. So, putting it outside made a world of difference. The suction cup is ok, but doesnt work on a fabric plane. I cable tied the antennae to a strut.

Good service

Fixed my tx/rx issues by mounting my antenna away from my paramotor frame. Crystal clear communications with local GAs on my Icom A6.

Works as advertised.

Bought this to use with my old ICOM Navicom A22. Works perfect in my Rotorway Exec 162F. Use this as a second radio for getting ATIS or for a backup radio. Allows for clear reception and transmission. Would highly reccommend to anyone looking at this antenna extension.

Had a radio issue in flight and my back up ICOM radio was unable to talk to the tower from 2 miles out (hear but no transmit) at 2K feet. Put this new antenna on flew the same route with the ICOM and was able to communicate with the tower 6 on a 10 scale. Antenna position in the cockpit must be moved around as it picks up lot of other noise from cockpit electronics based on where you position it.

For what it does, it seems to make a difference. I am still experimenting with placement, but it was easy to install, stays in place, and allows me to better use the radio as a handset, instead of having an antenna in my way.
