This kit provides an ideal solution when a quality CB antenna installation is needed where a good vehicle chassis ground isn't available. Whether it be on a RV, trailer, motorhome or boat, this kit will provide superior CB performance in a no-ground environment. All kit components are high-quality parts manufactured by Firestik.
The antenna included in these kits are extremely similar to Firestik's Firefly series, but are specially modified for NGP applications. They include a tunable tip, which makes adjusting for peak performance and minimal SWR as simple as turning a screw on top of the antenna.
This kit uses Firestik's popular 3-Way CB antenna mounting bracket. This extremely versatile mount can be used to mount the antenna to vertical or horizontal mirror arms as well as other bars. If the back of the mount is removed, it also functions as an "L mount" and can be mounted to any vertical surface. The mount is extremely well built and made of rust resistant stainless steel. The kit also includes a stainless steel antenna spring which protects both mount and antenna in the event the antenna hits an object or becomes snagged.
The 17' coaxial cable used in these kits is of the highest quality. The NGP cable assembly that comes with this kit utilizes a custom manufactured coaxial cable available only through Firestik. This NGP cable can only be directly attached to Firestik NGP antennas. If a longer cable length is required, the user may add standard RG-58 A/U cable between the radio and NGP cable, preferably in lengths that are multiples of nine feet. Because it is a tuned circuit, the length cannot be reduced without causing non-repairable damage.
If you purchase this kit, please make sure to read these important NGP installation instructions.
