Thread: UHF/VHF

My antenna is permanently mounted, I can't interchange antennas.

The RFI base is the one i was hoping i could use to replace of my currant antenna and buy a UHF antenna that will attach to the RFI base it's an extra antenna that i was given.

Which allows me to change antennas when in different location (ie) low gain for hilly country or high gain for flat open country.
