Anytone 6666pro -Antenna connector

[columbas]

As everyone knows the antenna connector is hard to get to on the back of the radio. So I had several company 2 meter radio's laying around with their antenna connection made with about 6 inch coax cable with a connector for a pl 259 on the end. To make it short I took that off that radio and installed it on my Anytone 6666pro. Now it is so easy to connect anything to the antenna. For those wondering if it changed my SWR any it did not change the SWR.

These are available out in the wild or you can use a double male & double female like I did to solve the problem. And I had them in stock already.

You could do the same with a short jumper and barrel connector probably.

That's the ticket, I would use these if I had to connect / disconnect a lot. Put it on once and leave it.

A short jumper with female end will work but jumpers can short out.

I'm going to put one of those on any way.

You know what they say about Murphy's Law ( If it can go wrong it will ). That's why I went with Solid connections. I come from the maintenance field and always preached Murphy's Law ! LOL

A pl259 quick connect would work for a base station.
