Hello all,

I have read a great deal on this site about setting up a HAM Radio in my bronco but now I have a question. I want to put my antenna on the rear of my bronco but can't find an adapter that will work with a PL-259 connector. I have seen several that will work with a GMRS antenna but not a PL-259 connector. Does anyone have any suggestions?

thanks

I apologize, your question is somewhat vague. Does the end of your coax that is going to the antenna have a PL-259 connector, or do you have an antenna with the UHF (pl-259) threaded base?
I am not sure if this helps, there is a NMO to SO-239 adapter for this type of antenna here:

Or, if your coax is terminated with a PL-259, here is an adapter that you could use to convert to NMO antenna:

I hope this helps!
