CHA 21" SPIKE MOUNT SPIKE
"This spike is one fine piece of equipment. Great addition to my carbon fiber mast. Very well made"
SPIKE MOUNT · Mounting & Support
A base, clamp, adapter, bracket, stake, or mount for a documented portable installation.
Why operators make room for it
CHA SPIKE MOUNT: create a stable support point for the intended antenna
The SPIKE MOUNT is an innovative new product built exclusively by the skilled machinists at Chameleon Antenna. It is a precision fabricated heavy-duty stainless-steel stake with a fitting for attaching the Hybrid HF antenna base and a counterpoise. It is rugged and highly portable and enables easy ground mounting of the Chameleon Antenna HF Modular Portable Antenna System (MPAS) or Hybrid Portable HF Antenna (HYBRID MINI/MICRO). The antenna can only stay useful if its base remains secure when leverage, wind, uneven ground, and hurried setup begin working against it.

- Best for
The antenna can only stay useful if its base remains secure when leverage, wind, uneven ground, and hurried setup begin working against it.
- What else you need
Confirm the antenna load, leverage, wind area, adapter, sleeve, fastener, and guying requirements.
- Compatible with
Confirm every thread, sleeve, adapter, clamp surface, and required fastener
- Limitations
- Verify leverage, wind area, adapters, fasteners, and guying
- Do not use a metal hammer or strike an attached Hybrid Micro / Mini or Blank Adapter.
What an operator can do
- Attach the mount to the approved surface, vehicle point, ground location, or support.
- Confirm the antenna load, leverage, wind area, adapter, sleeve, fastener, and guying requirements.
- Re-check stability and fastener tension after deployment and whenever weather or loading changes.
Compatibility: Physical fit does not by itself establish RF, power, environmental, or structural approval. Follow a documented completed-system configuration.
