Kale doesn't make a "Freedom Antenna"...That was a special order item he built for a guy that go's by Bulldog in Maine a couple years ago, and was nothing more than just a 36" shaft, that you could stick a cut-down 102" whip in...It didn't have any coils, so when tuned it ended up about as tall as a 102" whip...maybe a little taller...Basically what it did was give you the full benefits of having a 102" whip, but one that wouldn't flex as much rolling down the highway since the lower section was a 36" piece of aluminum rod...
Bulldog IMO had them way over priced too...Think he was asking close to $100 for one, and you had to supply the whip!
Seems like Kale made about 10 of these for Bulldog, and I think Bulldog may have sold half of them...not sure if he still has any or not left, but for what it was, like I said before it's way over-priced...Your better off just sticking a 102" whip on your vehicle and calling it a day.[/QUOTE thanks for the reply I own a 10k predator already and use it on my galaxy47hp and couldn't be any happier it has the best ears and transmission I have found am thinking of buying the bad to the bone to use with the general lee and Texas star 500 dx thanks again for input
This one? Yep....Monkey Made "Big John"...heavy, but a good antenna.JJD seems to know about the predator antennas better than anyone I know. Or should I say he seems to have the largest knowledge base of what predator antennas there are! You still using that single coil MM JJD? Or did you switch back to the predator?? Just curious.
I still say the Monkey Made Big John is the antenna 55 copied I have two of the Big Johns great antennas the plus with the Monkey Made is the coil welds real good mfg workThis one? Yep....Monkey Made "Big John"...heavy, but a good antenna.
Could be they are similar. I also have 2 of 55's, and did have 2 of Fat Boy's R6's which are just like 55's (only buying from Fat Boy, they include the stingers, which 55 doesn't do)I still say the Monkey Made Big John is the antenna 55 copied I have two of the Big Johns great antennas the plus with the Monkey Made is the coil welds real good mfg work

Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned |
