Umm. … How much description do you need? It’s a telescoping antenna. It’s really short collapsed, maybe six inches long or so. It’s a full quarter wave on 2 meters fully extended, so, like, 19 inches give or take. It’s flexible at the bottom, as I said, and it screws into one of several different connector bases, either BNC, SMA male, SMA female.
