Short term solution, long term spare.
The coax wire running up the inside of my mast lost its center connection and would require the mast to come down to run a new wire. In that this is mid season in the NE I do not want to do that now,so....The range is less than the mast mounted antenna, as expected, but I still can reach out 2 to 3 miles with this antenna at deck level.

Good stuff
I needed a temporary antenna and this works great. My unit receives AIS and the signals come through W/O issue.

Great emergency VHF antenna.
Great. Hoisting up mast on halyard resulted in good distance if it stays vertical. Also, used an adapter to attach to a hand held, and really improved the distance just holding it up with one hand while using the hand held with the other.

Every boat should have a spare.
Looks like it is what I wanted. Hope I don't have to use it.

Perfect for Its Use
We used this for a couple weeks until we get the full size antenna hooked up, and it worked well.

Exactly what I needed as an emergency VHF antenna for Transpac, and at a reasonable price.
