I'm thinking about a KJ7U screwdriver Larry's Antennas which seems very sturdy.
Well I made the mistake of buying a Workman 3/8 24 mount it was made of cheap cast brass nicely chrome plated it snapped off and the LiL Tarheel landed in the street as luck would have it my friend was behind me and picked it up, other then a bit of asphalt rash it was fine now that's rugged! Here is the new mount I made so that will never happen again. Even after I used a ball mount it flopped around like a fish. The black stuff is Lexan painted.
