NMO VS SO 239 (Nagoya NL- 770G)

[@otrdriver6767]

I have watched two of your videos and liked them. You are out there really working things in the real world and I like this. I have subscribed with notifications and a thumb up. Thank you.

Determining they were about equal on the air was no surprise to me.
The comparison I would be more interested in how weather resistant they are using various styles of mounts.
Do both the NMO and the SO-239 antennae have O-rings around their bases? Will those O-rings provide an effective seal with various types of mounts? 🤔

[@zachfinley3908]

The NMO is oring sealed. The so239 is not. However, the so239 does have many more threads and fits much deeper with the antenna itself having a rubber seal. I haven't personally had a weather related issue on my so239.
From my internet findings, a slight majority of "experts", find that NMO withstands weathering better but will update later if a weathering related issue comes up!
