Quick fit means the FME connector is designed for fast, tool free connection and disconnection, allowing the antenna to be installed or removed without crimping or soldering tools. This is the same connector type used across GME's ABL01x marine antenna base range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the AE312H compare to the AE2001, AE2401, and AE2402?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe AE2001 at 320mm, AE2401 at 900mm, and AE2402 at 1200mm are all whip only products that do not include a base, cable, or connector. The AE312H is a complete 600mm kit including antenna assembly, 5m coax, FME connector, and plug. The AE312H uses FME connectivity, while the other whips use thread based bases. The AE312H is the right choice for a complete, FME connected 27MHz installation, while the other whips suit installations where a thread based base and separate cable are already in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the AE312H kit include everything for a complete installation?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe AE312H includes the antenna assembly, 5m coaxial cable, FME connector, and plug. A compatible mounting position with a ferrous steel surface for ground plane is required. A 27MHz CB radio is not included. If the radio uses a non FME antenna input, a GME AD5xx series adaptor will be needed to bridge the connector types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the AE312H relate to the AE312B?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe AE312B is an AM\/FM antenna in the same kit format, with a 600mm antenna base, 5m coax, FME connector, and plug. The AE312H is the 27MHz CB equivalent. Both are complete antenna assemblies with the same included components, but for different frequency applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes ground dependent mean I need a steel mounting surface for the AE312H?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. A ground dependent antenna relies on the vehicle's or vessel's metal body as the electrical ground plane. Steel body panels and structural steel are suitable. Fibreglass, aluminium, and other non metallic surfaces will not provide the required ground plane, resulting in poor antenna performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e GME covers this product with a one year manufacturer's warranty, on top of your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GME","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43059831603293,"sku":"AE312H","price":89.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9528\/9437\/files\/AE312H.jpg?v=1787265325","url":"https:\/\/frankiesautoelectrics.com.au\/products\/gme-ae312h-27mhz-ground-dependent-antenna","provider":"Frankies Auto Electrics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
