Metz SS-10 Magnetic Mount VHF Antenna Combo

The Metz SS-10 Magnetic Mount VHF Antenna Combo is purpose-built for boaters and anglers who demand reliable marine communications in open water and coastal environments. After years running offshore and coastal routes, you know that a quality VHF antenna isn't optional—it's your lifeline for weather updates, emergency hailing, and ship-to-shore coordination. This combo package delivers the MANTA-6 stainless steel whip antenna paired with a robust magnetic mount, designed to install quickly on any ferrous metal surface without permanent modifications to your boat's structure.

The SS-10 features a 34-inch stainless steel whip antenna engineered for optimal VHF band performance and superior signal clarity across typical boating ranges. The medium-to-heavy magnetic mount base measures 5 inches in diameter, providing stable coupling to your boat's cabin roof, hardtop, or console without drilling or adhesive installation. Stainless steel construction resists saltwater corrosion and UV degradation—critical factors for anglers and cruisers operating in harsh marine conditions. The magnetic design allows tool-free repositioning, making it ideal for testing optimal placement before committing to a permanent mount, and the included hardware supports both fixed and seasonal setups.

This antenna combo works with standard VHF transceivers installed in recreational, commercial, and fishing vessels operating within typical marine frequency allocations. Anglers appreciate the quick-release design for trailered boats, while cruisers benefit from the permanent-mounting versatility on larger cabin cruisers and trawlers. The 5-pound assembly balances weight savings with mechanical rigidity, and the magnetic base requires only a clean, flat metal surface for secure installation. Compatible with both DSC-equipped and conventional VHF radio systems, the Metz SS-10 is an essential upgrade for any boater prioritizing safety and communication reliability on the water.
