## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this whip work with 6m SSB?**
A: It's almost exactly 1/2 wave on 6m.  I use a small tuner with it and it works fine on 6m.  I haven't tried it without a tuner.

**Q: Is the tip threaded?  If so what is the thread size?**
A: Yes, the tip cap inside is threaded, and size is M16*1.  The bottom thread size is standard 3/8-24.

**Q: can this fit a baofeng two way radio bf-888s?**
A: This antenna is 9ft tall. It will not fit on a BF888s.

**Q: It works directly without any tuning?**
A: Its made for hf radio with a tuner. It is a bit longer than a CB whip but seems to work ok. You could trim it with a bit of skill but it needs a groundplane first and its portable.
