It uses solderless connectors for attaching the center and ground leads of the cable to the mount.
Installation is no more difficult than our other mounts, and SWR results are outstanding.
Colinear antennas have very high gain, but are rather large and limited to one band. Our VHF-1 mount has a high quality NMO connector. This adaptor fits any antennas with the standard Motorola NMO connector. Many amateurs have this type of mount already, and can save the cost of a new SO-239 based antenna by using this mount. It is a perfect grounded base for loop antennas such as the KB6KQ loops for 440, 2m, etc.
