    Sirio mobile antennas, which is which

    Sorry, I didn’t know that stinger was so long. Maybe you can go to a place where aluminum and stainless steel rods are sold. They may sell you the length you are looking for, but they are not tappered.

    Never mind. I found out. According with Google Maps, they are in the UK. They must be a US Sirio distributor somewhere, if not, go fo an universal stinger. Use a caliper to measure stinger diameter and go to flea bay .

    High SWR on A/S Super Magnum III Antenna

    I had that antenna. The cover is supposed to already have a drain hole. Maybe the hole has dirt, spiderwebs. Remove the cover and clean it inside. Verify the coil as well. Also, a drain hole on the middle of the first aluminum section. The picture will be helpful for you to see how it is...
