FireRing with FME Connector Coax Cable

Reviews: 1



Firestik, being a trusted company in manufacturing antennas and coax cable, never compromised quality just for the sake of convenience. Rather, it finds ways to offer both. Experience the the ease and convenience of being able to route your coax to the radio without the need for holes or passages with the use of the FireRing with FME Connector Coax Cable.

FireRing with FME Connector Coax Cable makes routing possible from the mount to the radio as the female mini-UHF connector will pass through a hole that is only 7/16" (11mm)in diameter. After reaching the radio, completion is as simple as screwing on the supplied mini-UHF/PL-259 adapter, and then screwing the PL to the radios antenna connection. No coax to process, no soldering joints to complete and no tools needed.

The cable also includes an extra-long stud bolt, so that the Fire-Ring connection can be used with any existing lug style or PL-259 antenna studs - no special stud required.

  • Route coax through small holes, then screw on PL-259 connection when finished for radio connection!
  • Fire-Ring mount connection is smaller than PL-259 types, and more resistant to rust and weather.
  • Includes extra-long bolt to ensure Fire-Ring compatibility with existing lug-style or PL-259 studs.
  • Stranded center conductor to maximize flexibility and prevent untimely breakage.
  • Shielding coverage that averages 95% to protect against RF leaks and interference.
  • Polyvinyl center insulation for ruggedness and longevity.
  • Performance that exceeds mil-spec requirements for 50 ohm RG-58A/U coax.
  • Includes a one-year manufacturers warranty.

As a Jeep TJ owner, I often wheel with other Jeep enthusiasts. The need for reliable "Jeep to Jeep" communication became a paramount issue recently. After some research and forum walking, it became apparent that many other wheelers use the venerable CB radio to communicate with other trail riders. And the equipment source that kept showing up in threads was Right Channel. Well, I visited their site and ended up placing and
order for a Uniden Bearcat PC-78 Elite, a 4' Firestik antenna and FireRing FME coax.

I had been looking at a Cobra 75 WX St, but opted instead to go "old school" and get a full featured model. The Uniden PC-78 turned out to be just about infinitely adjustable. Sure, it has a bigger form factor, but mounted to the roof of my Jeep, I had plenty of room to work with. The Firestik antenna was the FS variety, and could be tuned at the end. This was very handy, and the only way to go in my opinion. And the FireRing coax just mad interfacing the two so much easier. A FireRing Compatible CB Antenna Stud rounded out the system.

Delivery was very fast, but while I waited I brushed up on what I thought I needed to know about installs, etc., on their web CB Radio Resources. I had no idea about tuning CB systems, but had it all in the noggin when the time came to put it in. Glad I did, because it all went perfect, and the tuning was spot on. Now I use the system routinely to talk with fellow Jeepers on-trail. In fact, my setup bests many other "tossed-in" jobs. Now I find myself referring others to Right Channel for how-to info. The only down side to my outfit is I can barely hear distant fellow Jeepers, but they can sure hear me! Thanks!
