This is another "gold standard" mount for motorized / screwdriver HF antennas.
Like our UHAM-150, the "200" is a universal mount that fits ANY BRAND of motorized / screwdriver HF Antenna up to 2-1/8" in diameter at the antenna base. It is available in bare aluminum ("Series 12") or in five standard powder coated paint colors ("Series 14"): black, red, white, blue and clear coat (click > Powder Coated Paint Colors).
The UHAM-200 is similar to the UHAM-150, with the same adjustable V-clamp assembly, except for the changes that enable it to bolt to a vertical surface, whereas the UHAM-150 bolts to a horizontal surface such as a trailer hitch and truck bumper.
The UHAM-200 mounts to a VERTICAL surface with two (2) 3/8 hex bolts. You can bolt it to your vertical surface such as truck bed wall, tool box or other sturdy vertical surface. Look at our photos below to help understand its mounting features and dimensions.
The UHAM-200 can also bolt to one of our optional mounting accessories:
- pickup truck stake mount bracket
- "lay back" front bed wall mount, that allows you to tilt your motorized / screwdriver antenna into the bed of your truck
- SUV rear tire carrier bracket
- "CLAMP-200": motorhome/RV ladder , deck railing, fence "clamp to anything" bracket
- extension plate to raise the UHAM-200 3 inches higher (similar to our new CLAMP MOUNT )

We've had hams tell us that they've researched the market for the "best" mount for their antenna - and found the UHAM mounts! There are other perfectly good antenna mounts but here are some reasons why the UHAM product line is the "gold standard" mount and is more versatile and flexible in mounting than "other brand" mounts:
- UNIVERSAL - fits ANY BRAND of antenna that: (1) has a base diameter up to 2-1/8 inches, (2) has an area 2 inches long that is clear of obstructions (bolt heads, wires) approx. 5 to 9 inches (mount is adjustable up-down) above the base of the antenna, and (3) takes a 3/8x24 stud at the base of the antenna. THIS INCLUDES:
- Hi Q (models 2.5/80 to 4/80 to 5/160)
- High Sierra, Tarheel
- other brands of screwdriver antennas that meet three three requirements listed above.
- HEAVY-DUTY - thick aluminum parts and heavy duty weld with stainless steel hardware that supports the antenna at two places - the base and about 8 inches about the base with a heavy duty stainless steel V-clamp.
- ADJUSTABLE - allows for up-down and forward-back adjustments to best fit your ANY BRAND antenna....Hi Q Antennas 5/160 to High Sierra HS-1800 and Tarheel models...and other brands as well. No other mount is adjustable to fit various brands of antennas.
- HEAVY DUTY ANTENNA INSULATION - we provide heavy duty, abrasion resistant, water proof insulation that is thicker than what is used on some other brand mounts around the upper support around the antenna mount.
- SLEEK LOOKING DESIGN - sleek appearance that can be seen in our photos below.
- QUICK REMOVAL & "LAYBACK" DESIGN - if you use a quick disconnect (not provided) you can install or remove your antenna in about 20 seconds yet there are no hinges or pins to rattle and potentially affect your SWR by the hinge and pin movement. If your antenna is mounted to the back of your vehicle the base of the antenna can rest in the V-clamp at about a 45 degree angle to get into your trunk, in about 20 seconds.
Why buy another mount just becasue you decide to buy another antenna? You can spend $100 to over $200 for "other brand" mounts that are designed to only fit their antennas. If you buy the UHAM mount it will likely fit your future antennas - the UHAM is the mount you can keep!
Your coax is connected to the bottom of the mount via either of the following methods:
-
Direct connection of your coax without a PL-259 plug to the UHAM ground bolt and your bolt that attaches the bottom of your antenna, via the PROVIDED solder lug kit (kit includes two solder lugs heat shrink tubing for RG58 size coaxial cable, shown in photos below) -OR-
-
Plug in your coax with a PL-259 connector to the OPIONAL super-heavy duty SO239 antenna mounting system ("SHD SO239 ").
All parts are stainless steel, and Type 6061 aluminum or cast aluminum - top quality materials. The insulation kit includes a 2 inch wide by 18 inch long piece of 3/16" thick EDPM rubber and 5 (five) UV (sunlight) resistant tie stips (use 4, 1 extra "just in case" you loose one). This is shown in the photos below and is enough for your ANY BRAND antenna.
