Re: I think I did good
I went with the Shakspere 5102 antenna and the Icom 422 radio. After I installed them and on my first trip out I did a radio check and was talking to a guy 70 miles away crystal clear. I was and still am very happy with my set up.
Make sure to cut off the extra footage of cable from the antenna but make sure you leave a little slack when you route it to the radio and then solder the connector on. Making sure you have good connections and routing you cable proper is the key to good reception and transmitting power.
