Original Abstract Submitted
An antenna assembly includes a flexible whip antenna having a mounting connector, a cable coupled to the mounting connector, a bottom spring coil surrounding the cable and coupled to the mounting connector, an adaptor coupled to the cable, and a rod radiator coupled to the adaptor. The mounting connector is coupled to an antenna feed. The cable extends between a first end, terminated to the mounting connector, and a second end, terminated to the adaptor. The bottom spring coil concentrically surrounds the first end of the cable and is terminated to the mounting connector. The rod radiator extends between a first end, terminated to the adaptor, and a second end. The cable is flexible to move the rod radiator relative to the mounting connector.
