The “mag-mount” is an effective solution for temporary antenna installations on vehicles. Typically they have a 3 to 5 inch base with an NMO antenna mount and 12 to 17 feet of coax cable with several connector options.
But what do you do when you need a longer cable or a higher spec cable?
Mobile Trends MOBMAGC is the “mag-mount” DIY solution. At roughly 3.25″ it gets the job done for most VHF and UHF antennas. The nominal 0.75″ hole accepts an industry-standard NMO mount. The side hole is intended for RG58 (MOB58) or LMR195 (MOB195) cable. The NMO mount, cable, and end connector are not included with the magnet.
