Will do...just one more question for you guyz....is it ok to mix and match nmo mounts with nmo antennas? For example, can I use a MaxRad nmo antenna, on a Larson nmo mag mount, with out any problems? Thanx JIM

Should work, NMO non manufacturer is a standard to my knowledge.

NMO is an industry standard. You will also see them called Motorola mounts. It doesn't matter who the manufacturer of the antenna and who the manufacturer of the mount is. Its a standard design mount and manufacturer has no bearing, as long as it meets the NMO specification.
