Default Help IDing this antenna base or brand please?



This 5/8 wave 2M stick has been riding around in the back
of my 4x4 for years and I've forgotten what brand it is and I now
need a hole type mount for it.
Anybody recognize this from the pix?

You didn't provide much picture of the antenna, only the base, but from
what I can see, it looks like the type Antenna Specialists uses.

Yes, Ed is correct, it is the type of mount that Antenna Specialists uses.
Here is a link to some of their mounts, including the style you have:
http://www.antennaspecialists.com/lm_cat/lmrpg37.html Look at the K-49
and K-57
What it is, is a modified PL-259/SO-239 design, where the male and female
portions of the center connector have been swapped. In fact, looking
further on the website, I see where they are now selling a replacement solid
center pin, so the antennas can be mounted on a standard SO-239 mount.
These used to be very popular with Public Safety, gray coils about 7/8" in
diameter. I have no idea what brand of antenna you have, though.

I guess my first message wasn't clear, what I need to know is what mount

is
that? I've looked at pictures of NMO, SO239 and other but they don't

match,
I'm thinking it some form of N connector, if there is such a mount.
Thanks.
