I also bought one recently from Gizmos. Still have to find time and a good manual to install it.

so install it it’s easy your receiver has four tabs two on each side take a small little screwdriver press and the tabs separate the top half on the bottom half pull out the small antenna wire disconnected connect a new antenna wire feed it through put them back together and you’re done

Just curious are people having problems wth range on there current factory antennas?
Or are people going longer for a more definate signal?
I assume people are still leaving the antenna inside the box anyway.

Some boats have carbon fiber so it’s always best to get the antenna as far outside the boat as possible. I had a antenna slip back in the boat and I lost radio since then. I put the longer antennas on all my boats and ensure there plenty sticking out the boat

David, the actual antenna is only the part that is stripped and tinned. The rest of the antenna wire is surrounded by an insulating braid that keeps out interference. As Julian said, the added length is to get that stripped antenna end as far out of the hull as possible, especially if the hull is built with carbon fiber. Carbon fiber is a material that blocks some or all of a transmitter's signal, making an "in radio box" antenna installation worthless

I do not know if the will work on the receivers that you have ,I use them on the fass receiver R603ff and R 603FS. let me know what number receivers you have and I will find out if they will fit your receivers before I send the antennas.
Thanks
