Know before you buy
These adapters are designed to work with the CHA-SS58, CHA-SS17, and CHA-SS25 whip antennas. They feature a standard 3/8"-24 threaded connection to ensure a secure fit.
The adapters are rated for up to 300W SSB and 200W for CW and digital modes. They are suitable for most portable and field-based amateur radio operations within these power limits.
You do not need the CHA-PUCK-HUB for the adapter to function as a mount. However, if you want to integrate up to six radials to improve your antenna's performance, the hub is required.
The choice depends on your existing cable assemblies. Choose the SO-239 version if you typically use PL-259 terminated coax, or the BNC version if you prefer the quick-connect convenience often used in portable field setups.
While it is robust enough for semi-permanent use, it is specifically optimized for portable operations. The design allows for quick antenna changes and easy setup, making it ideal for field days or temporary deployments.
