I bought a rocket m2 and I would like to know what kind of antenna do I need to get a radio of 50 km

If you are trying to set up a 50km backbone link to a distant location which is what I am surmising you will need one of the full parabolic antennas available through ubiquiti. The rocket M2 will snap into the mounting assembly at the back of the antenna. I would suggest however, you use Rocket M5's for long hauls like the one you are mentioning. If you are in a remote area with clear line of sight you may be able to use the Rocket M2. If there is any congestion in the bandwidth in your area or between the two end points you are probably not going to succeed in the 2.4ghz band.

U probably need a large 34 db ppt antenna...that is a long distance to work with with m2

Rocket M5 is probably a better choice although 50 Km is a challenge. Use RD5G34 with them

Yes. You will need an antenna mount, the coax to connect the radio to the mount. The antenna will screw into the mount. You will also need to set it up using an SWR meter.

I currently have a 4' Astatic half-breed. I also use Firestik antennas. The Astatic has less static and better range. You can use a magnet mount but I dont know what vehicle you have or how you want to mount it. The #1 thing is to set the SWR for any antenna. Look it up if you dont know- you will need a meter or a cb shop can do it sheap. If the antenna isnt tuned the transmit circuit can burn out on you cb.

if you mean that antenna positioned with the rocket m2, you should use or omnidirectional antennas or sector antennas ubiquiti are perfect.

Different antennas have different freq. spectrum. You should be able to buy an adapter. Anything else would be stealing Satellite time.

I have just used the antenna that came with my radio and it has worked fine. I make sure that the antenna is straight and fastened at a height that is higher than the radio. And be sure that the antenna is pushed in as far as it can.

All I know it works well on 2 meters,what are you useing the antenna for? What kind of radio?

You always need a swr meter when setting up any new antenna! They will tell you that in the tuning instructions that come with the antena

This antenna should work well. Be sure to properly tune the antenna and radio according to the instructions that came with your antenna and radio.

In order to get reliable reception, he needs to buy a separate car kit for each vehicle. Thats what I did and it works fantastic. Just slide it in the cradle of whatever he is driving Pay one subscription and have xm in multiple vehicles. The antenna on it works best with open sky above. Not reliable with any kind of obstructions like roofs, trees, mother ships.

The make a couple of different antenna adapters. You have to get the correct one.

the swr are good on the antenna that come with it meaning the rubber screw on that you see on the radio in the picture,,you can buy and add a out side antenna ,,i use a wilson non ground plane 3 ft on my motorcycle ,,85 gl1200 goldwing,, i have not used the magnetic antenna that is shown ..my name is ken gee ,,

What you want to look for is the gain on the antenna. In most cases, the outdoor antenna will provide between 2 and 3db gain. but you can find higher. Be sure you're looking at an antenna for the right frequency ranges (700 mHz, 800, mHz and 1900 Hz)

You will need one that is no longer in production. If you plan on adding sirrus I high recommend you purchase a unit that is Sirius/XM ready the antennas for this unit (if you can find ) are crazy expensive and out dated

The range depends on your antenna and how it is tuned. Buy a quality antenna and a swr meter to tune it for maximum range. You will need an adapter to plug it into the cigarette plug but try running the power wire directly to the battery. Be sure to fuse the power wire.
