Mast Adapter AA 9213 for antennas with 3/8 inch thread

Some antennas are equipped with 3/8″ female threads. This thread is also called the large camera thread. Such antennas can be directly mounted on tripods with 3/8 inch male thread, e.g. AM 9144. Adapters are usually not required.

Some mast systems use the widely used 22 mm antenna tube with indexing ring to fix the antenna. If the antenna is not equipped with a 22 mm tube the AA 9213 is required.

AA 9213 is perfectly suited for small antennas. Larger antennas might cause torque around the 22 mm tube. Such large antennas should only be mounted if the center of gravity is below the 22 mm tube.

The indexing ring can be shifted along the tube after loosening 4 grub screws. It can also be removed completely. The star handle screw 3/8″ is undetachably fixed to the adapter.

AA 9213 works well because possible torque is negligible. As the H-field pattern of these antennas is rotation-symmetric turning the antenna around the tube is usually not required.
FESP 5134-40AA 9213 works well but an additional thread reducing adapter TA 9204 is required.

AA 9213 can be used. However these antennas are heavier and can cause torque around the 22 mm tube. They should only be mounted with the center of gravity under the 22 mm tube.
