Our take on the Standard Horizon CAT460 Rubber Duck Antenna

The CAT460 is a replacement rubber duck antenna for most Standard Horizon handheld VHF marine radios, including the HX300, HX290, HX400, HX751 and HX851, plus older HX270S, HX460 and HX750S models. It is a flexible, omni-directional VHF whip about 8 inches long that screws onto the radio's antenna connector. It does not fit the HX470 or HX471. Buyers use it to restore a radio whose original antenna was lost, bent or damaged; it is a basic factory-style part rather than an upgrade, and reception gains over a stock antenna are modest.

Questions and answers

Which radios does the CAT460 fit?
It fits current HX300, HX280S, HX290, HX370S, HX400, HX751 and HX851 radios and older HX270S, HX460, HX500S, HX600S, HX750S, HX760S and HX850S models. It does not fit the HX470 or HX471.
Will it improve my radio's range?

No. It threads onto the radio's antenna connector by hand and needs no tools.

It is made for Standard Horizon handhelds. Other brands may use a different connector and are not listed as compatible.
