well with cbers look after each other as most of us did back in the 80s i have something to share with you all,

The Sirio Hypower 4000
A high quality 7/8 wave mobile antenna.

A larger version of the Hypower 3000, this one features a 2m long whip.

The coil is made from heavy duty plastic and contains a large cross-section copper coil. A swivel adjusment at the top of the coil allows the whip to be angled to suit the position it is mounted.

The whip is tapered and of high quality stainless steel.

Probably the best antenna available - it will certainly out perform a Wilson! :shock:

fits onto a large (7") matching Sirio mag mount (Mag-145). The mounting is an SO239 type - as used on Amateur antennas.
