Aerial length?
Danny,
I have a new XS3 system for my boat.
Question is when putting the aerial to a screw on stainless steel one, do I have to shorten the wire by the length of the stainless aerial?
I have had all sorts of reports, but I would like some input from a tek.
Paul.

RE: Aerial length?
Generally you can shorten the antenna length by the length of the new antenna, or if it is a base loaded antenna the amount described by the manufacturer. It is best though to have the receiver tuned to the antenna for best performance.
