That would allow you to have (at a minimum) one antenna for 2m/70cm and another antenna for 6m/10m. Frankly, that will allow much better performance vs. anyone's compromised 4 band antenna (and I've tried several of them). **Q: Is there an extended cable for the removable face plate? Thanks** A: It comes with the extension cable and removeable face kit bracket. You will need to provide your own remote speaker or Bluetooth adapter. **Q: Does this come with a separation kit or does it depend on the seller?** A: It comes with a 6p6c cable and a face plate bracket. It also has a microphone bracket. You will need a remote speaker to use the face plate remotely, unless you put the main body of the radio somewhere you can hear it. Any truck stop can provide a remote speaker for the radio. Get a Comet CF-530C duplexer to put a dual band vhf/uhf antenna on one side of the duplexer output and put a 103 inch antenna on the 29Mhz and 50 Mhz side. **Q: What would it take to run this in your home on AC current?** A: Want clean DC? Power your battery with a solar panel. Up to 18+ volts. Want it regulated? A charge controller is 10 bucks. You can regulate it by putting a 12 volt light bulb in series to the battery. My last 4 homes were panels. No AC ripple. Pure DC. Be sure to fuse both sides. Xmit at sundown on a bright couple of days and your signal will be s9. 73s ## Frequently Bought Together - TYT TH-9800 Quad Band 50W Cross-Band Mobile Car Ham Radio Black 5.5 x 1.58 x 8.35" - Quad Band Mobile Radio Antenna for TYT TH-9800 Plus, TH-9800D, 10m/6m/2m/70cm, 29/50/144/430MHz, 4.1ft High Gain Antenna with 16.4ft Coaxial Cable and Bracket Clip - UAYESOK Mobile Transceiver Car Charger Cable Car Radio Power Cord 12V DC Power Cigarette Lighter with LED Lights for Kenwood Icom Yaesu Mobile Radio --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/2178675-th-9800-quad-band-50w-cross-band-mobile-car-ham](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/2178675-th-9800-quad-band-50w-cross-band-mobile-car-ham) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-28*
