The Mobile Dot Micro comes packaged in a bag with the rubber tail and directions from the factory. Lastly, the Open Dot Micro is the same antenna as the two above, only taken from an open car or receiver kit by TSS-Radio. This comes with just the antenna and rubber tail, no directions or packaging.
Q: My antenna cable is broken. Can I have it repaired?A: No, these cables cannot be spliced or repaired after being broken. The cost of repairing one of these cables will be far more expensive than getting a new one.
