MFJ-336T TRI-Magnet Mount 

Honestly I couldn’t pull it off. That is why I used a metal shelf. To slide it off.

Mr. WheelSpin1320, I have never had the striker come off while driving 100 mph down the NJ turnpike. 😂. Whip on that is 66”. The only thing that would knock it off is not being aware of you too clearance. Thick lower tree branches on roads, or low bridges sure would take it off. Don’t forget drive throughs. So be careful. The single 5 inches will work for 7 foot ham sticks. Just need to mind your clearance like I said. If you want the 102 whip. I highly suggest to use the three magnets. Also please put the spring in the mount first then the antenna on the spring. This will ensure that any low obstacles will allow the whip to bend out of the way brother. I hope this helps you in your antenna mounting experiments. “Keep playing with those radios & antennas .” Have fun. And 73.

Help me out. I think there is a tram 3500? That’s a 55” whip. I could be wrong on the model number. But look for that one to try. It’s good. Eric at Farpoint Farms RU-vid channel have a review on that Tram. Good luck 🍀

Less than 3 inches. Low profile without antenna attached. Good morning. 73

Thanks Mike. I plan on carrying a kayak on a roof rack. will only install the whip when stationary.@@mikecricket113

Very cool.

May I ask what your “Brain Storm”was?

@@mikecricket113 hold on to your hat; lol. I drive a truck and run a magnet mount K30. I’ve always wanted more antenna, and I thought adding a ground plane would help, so I devised a plan that included 3 of the magnets you use to attach an oversized banner to a bumper (the kind with the wing nuts) and put them on a 6” triangular steel plate. I thought “boom, I’ve cracked it!” Then I turned on RU-vid and got my heart broke. Oh well. Apparently, it’s a good idea; just not an original one. Live and learn.

I like your idea better

Yes sir. But I would suggest putting a spring that’s 3/8 24 thread into them out first then put your 102” on to the spring. That way if you hit any trees or low bridges. The whip will have some play and not snap off. Also the mount is extremely difficult to remove from the metal surface you may wish to put it on. So be careful not to scratch your vehicle. Center of the roof would be the optimal location. But you can decide what is best for you. Thank for your question. 73.
