I have used Dyno batteries without issue. They cost less than 1/2. Am I

FWIW, My VHF antenna cable and mast wiring extends six feet from the bottom of
the mast, up under a settee bunk. The wires enter a waterproof box and land on
a terminal strip and the coax has a female PL259 connecting to a double male
PL258 to the cable that goes to the VHF radio. Under the so
I forget where I came across this guide but it has served me well. I don't

this way. Basically same connector as at radio and antenna ends of the cable
with a barrel connector
