BNC 90 degree swivel adapter?

[rbryant76]

I don't think these are made..I know there are 90 degrees which will work if its my only option.

I like to lay my 436 down "flat on its back" at times when using it...of course this affects reception depending on where I am at, so a 90 degree fixes this issue


Ideally if I have it leaning on something, etc (at an angle) I could use a BNC 90 degree swivel adapter and rotate the antenna at different angles to ensure its pretty much vertical no matter what position the scanner is in.

Are these things even made?

2 BNC right angle adapters will make a swivel to lay the antenna down.

Yep. Tons of them out there for cheap. Do a search on BNC elbow on Amazon and you will get your choice for well under $10.

What prcguy said.

And you could add some rubber bands to help it stay vertical.

Thanks guys, ordered two, and a couple other adapters for a makeshift antenna at my work/cubicle.
