I'd solder a 3/8-24 by 2 inch SS stud onto the center pin. I'd take a stick of JB weld putty type epoxy and make a form around the N connector and stud Thread on a Hex threaded SS or chrome 3/8-24 coupler Viola' a Type N gumdrop mount. I'm a bit concerned as to how strong such an arrangement would be. -- David Griffith * --- Put my last name where it belongs hey OT: A 5/8 wave whip is sum like 57 inches in fiberglass, a gum drop mount is pretty supstantial, my gum drop mount is like 3 inches in diameter at the base, I used a uni multi step drill bit to cut the 3/4 inch hole in the trunk of my Taurus. My whip was a 11 meter 1/4 wave fiberglass whip I cut down to get 5/8 wave on 2 meters, and because it's fiberglass makes it broadbanded from 144 to 148 Mhz like 1.2-1.1/1 across the band 73 OT de n8zu |
