Show original supplier description

The Midland 18-259W Glass Mount VHF Weather Antenna is a valuable accessory for any emergency weather radio, engineered to enhance signal reception. Constructed with durability in mind, the 18-259W features a 17-7 stainless steel rod with a Black-Kote finish, built to withstand various environmental conditions. The 30-inch whip antenna is removable for convenience during car washes or storage. Installation is straightforward, utilizing a high-strength adhesive mount for single-pane window glass or fiberglass up to 3/8" thick, eliminating the need to run wires from inside to outside. This versatile antenna is ideal for a wide range of applications, including cars, trucks, vans, homes, boats, and RVs. It is particularly beneficial for structures with metallic siding or construction, such as manufactured homes and steel buildings, which can often interfere with radio signals. The 18-259W offers universal compatibility, with optimizations for Midland WR120, WR300, and WR400 series radios, and can also boost performance for other weather monitors featuring an RCA jack. The package includes the Midland 18-259W whip antenna, necessary mounting hardware such as a whip ferrule screw, whip position screw, base cover, coupling box, a window cleaner, and a 12-foot cable. Please note that this antenna is designed for single-pane glass or fiberglass up to 3/8 inch thick and will not function with double-pane windows.
