Works great

The bracket is a SECO bracket for a Husky Data Collector. The one for the Explorer doesn't quite fit.

I use one antenna for the MMpro but the other one is usually on my PM2 which is within a half mile and burning static as a base.

I recall Phill some time ago posted info on having one made up, but I understand it is now available through your Thales dealer.

For teh MobileMapper Pro, the Promark2 antenna cable works. For the MobileMapper CE, the ProMark3 antenna cable works.

Any dealer can source you these cables.

If you need a longer cable, do a search of previous posts using "PM2 antenna cable" you will find how to extend your cable.
