Forgiveme for my ignorance on this subject. I need to know who makes the best antenna set for the Humvee. It is the one that is in the back of the vehicle and is rather long (high).
Are there any other antennas that the Humvee uses? If so, who makes them. I am getting ready to build the Bronco Humvee.
Thanks
Mike

It looks like a large round tube, that is the best way to describe it.

Check out RJ models (www.rjproducts.com) for a really great HMMWV antennae and communications set. Got all you need to really deck one out.

Oh boy - please please please read the bronco m114 instructions carefully - the very first step has the parts labelled wrong - the front and rear axle assemblies are mislabbelled and have the parts swapped in the instructions on step 1, but step 2 - 3 they are back to how they should be - please read carefully - as one axle assemble will fit both ends, and the other will only fit the rear - is you assemble as per instructions you would have to unstick all that hard chassis work ! i talk from experience...
that said the duke antenna is also available in the afv cluib stryker upgrade set with a whle host of other mounts and stuff..
