Shakespeare 5225-XT 7' 8" Galaxy VHF Antenna

Model: 5225-XT-RL
  • Brass and copper elements for maximum range and efficiency
  • Stainless steel ferrule with standard 1"-14 thread
  • 20ft RG-8/X low-loss cable plus a PL-259 connector
  • One section

Shakespeare’s best — maximizes range and quality in a great looking antenna. The 5225-XT is Shakespeare’s Galaxy® Style 5225 in a stronger, stiffer radome. It’s extra tough for use on hard tops, T-tops, radar arches, or wherever its extra resistance to high winds and high speeds is welcome.
