Comet CP-5NMO CP5NMO Original RS-730 w/CK-3M5 166 NMO

Very versatile mount. Comet mounts are always too notch.

Bought a glass car and need to have a hatch mount for my cx-224 antenna. 1st time using it seems pretty sturdy even with my tri band antenna on it.

This is my third unit. I have used them since my 2006 Prius and the latest is going on my 2020 Tesla. Makes mounting and running the cable as easy as possible.

I recently purchased this Comet CP-5NMO trunk mount, for my Mustang. The Browning BR-140 NMO antenna is fastened to it and into my Cobra 25 LTD. Because this is a trunk mount, the lid itself might NOT have a COMPLETE ground to the body when closed. I installed 3/8 wide copper braided wire on both sides of the lid, directly to the body. There were trunk and body bolts to attach the braided copper wire for solid uninterrupted possible ground problems. With this Comet trunk mount and the Browning BR-104 Antenna being perfectly vertical, plus the exceptional SWR, what more can you ask for.

I will admit putting it on and getting the antenna to stand up correctly took some time but it was well worth it. This mount stayed on and never needed adjustment. I used it 3 years until I sold the car. When I took it off there were no tell tale marks where it had been. I reinstalled it on my new truck with out any trouble. I have a 2m/70 cm antenna on it.

We certainly like the mount. However they barely fit the lip of the rear hatch on a Dodge Journey. They fit, however just barely. Grounding is an issue and loss of paint from opening and closing the hatch. The second mount we received had a loose NMO mount insert that we had to secure. The insert became lodged in the antenna and we had a heck of a time removing the insert to reinstall on the NMO mount, with thread lock. All in all, it beats drilling holes, dropping headliners, etc. You have to keep a constant eye on these mounts, but they work.

The hole in the lip mount was too small for the included NMO antenna base to fit into. It required drilling the hole out larger, which was quite difficult.

With the 3 axis adjustment, this mount will connect to almost any point that has a lip. Nice, solid mount.
