FireFly Replacement Antenna
SKU: JK10CTANTR
This is the latest generation "FireFly" antenna from Firestik - complete
with a tuneable tip. All of our CB Antenna kits utilize the FireFly antenna because
we believe that it is one of the best antennas on the market. If you should break
your antenna, or if you just want another one for a different installation, you can
order it here.
The "FL" Series antennas are the performance leader of lightweight top-loaded CB antennas.
Each is approximately 40% lighter than the equivalent length Firestik II antenna. From the
perspective of mount stress, the lighter materials and reduced wind drag of the "FL" antennas
reduces stress by more than 60%. A 4-foot FireFly will easily perform on a mount that is
designed for antennas 3-foot or less. At the top of every "FL" antenna you will find our
patented tunable-tip. Besides making tuning a snap, the design broadens the antennas
bandwidth and increases its power handling capabilities. All "FL" antennas are compatible
with autos, trucks, vans, motorcycles and ATV's in a single antenna configuration when
metallic ground plane is available. Or, they may be used in dual (co-phased) configuration
on any vehicle made from any type of material. Like all CB antennas, the "FL" antennas
should be fine-tuned (SWR) in their final mounting location. If you have ever tuned a
non-tunable tip antenna, you will have a real appreciation for the "FL" antennas. In short,
tuning is as easy as popping off the tip and turning the adjustment screw up or down as
needed. All "FL" antennas exceed the requirements of any CB radio, new or old. Aside from
the hi-performance loading coil that maximizes the transmit/receive functions of your CB,
these top-loaded antennas will also receive the NOAA emergency weather alert and national
weather broadcasts for radios with those features.
All "FL" antennas are 100% American made with 100% American materials. To maintain a balance
between flexibility and ruggedness, we use a custom blended, glass fiber reinforced tube.
Each is wound with double insulated copper wire to prevent the oxidation and shorted windings
often found on non-Firestik antennas. The tunable tip mechanism is made from rust-proof brass
and has a rubber o-ring to hold the adjuster in place after tuning. Our 3/8"-24 threaded base
will fit all Firestik mounts and accessories. Each antenna is covered with a static reducing,
water-tight sleeve containing UV and pigment stabilizers.
All "FL" series antennas are factory bench tested for resonant frequency and overall quality.
They are available in black or red with a black tip.
