    2 diff antennas with 1 connector

    Anyone know if theres an adapter for the wilson 5K roof mount, so you can change the antenna to a predator 10K, ie..( so239 to a 3/8x24 stud? Example= 1) unscrew the wilson coil, 2) screw on the adapter to the roof mount, 3) then screw on the predator 10K.

    TS DX500V, convert to class C?

    The box is about 1 yr old, wouldnt get much for it,even tho its like new, and hasnt been abused. And i keep the S45HP turned down to 30-35W so i wont damage the amp. More just a thought.

    Dont wanna buy another amp, and dont use SSB like i thought i would in the mobile,heck dont use variable either, SO can the DX500V be converted to class (C)? AM only for more Watts? If so about how much money and work is it?
