Ok, Thanks for the comeback

I have DX99V and on AM 27.185 I can not turn the squelch on, it wont silence the backround noise. Could this be a problem with the antenna? Thanks

Thanks for the comeback, Doc, Ill see how it fits tomorrow, also can I use a heavier coax to connect the radio and amp together even though Im using a lighter gauge coax for the antenna? Thanks

Yes there is, there is no room to screw in a conventional cable end so I am using 2 opened end wrenches. Theres a bolt on the bottom facing up then a lock washer then the wire connector under the bracket then a plastic washer and everthing tightens up into the antenna.
