Have several two piece whip antennas for the Humvee era vehicles and several spring bases and mounts. All are the same size thread and match up perfectly. I needed one moure base and picked one up in a estate auction parts lot. Mounted it to my mount M998 and it bolts up perfectly, but my antenna sections will not thread on. This spring base is a larger thread size than all my other bases and antenna sections.
I either need to swap out for the correct base. Purchase a smaller thread base, or try to cobble up something that will thread on the base and reduce to the smaller thread size I need.
Are there two main thread diameters? What size am I looking for to match the smaller of the two. And, what is the thread size and pitch of the larger of the two so I can try and reduce it. These are all display antennas and non functional.
Thanks in advance.
