Overview
The JL Audio 010-13555-00 is a hideaway AM/FM radio antenna that plugs into a stereo using a standard Motorola-type male connector. It is meant for marine installs where the antenna lives inside the boat, and it works with most aftermarket head units, including JL Audio MediaMaster units such as the MM100s-BE and MM50.
Because the antenna sits out of sight, it fits clean helm layouts where you do not want a deck-mounted whip or an exterior mount that gets bumped, snagged, or exposed to constant spray.
Key features
- Hideaway AM/FM antenna format for installations that keep the antenna inside the boat
- Standard Motorola-type male plug for common AM/FM radio inputs
- Compatible with most aftermarket head units, including JL Audio MM100s-BE and MM50
- Construction intended for real saltwater environments
- White antenna finish that stays subtle in light-colored consoles and liners
Installation and placement
Plan the install so the antenna can sit undisturbed and the lead can be routed back to the head unit without sharp bends or pinch points. Common mounting spots include behind the helm, inside a console, or under a hardtop liner.
Reception is usually best when the antenna is kept away from large metal surfaces, high-current power runs, and other antenna leads. If you are troubleshooting weak reception, start by checking placement and the connector seating at the back of the stereo.
Compatibility and fit
This antenna is for stereos that accept an AM/FM antenna connection with a Motorola-style female socket. If your head unit uses a different style of antenna input, you will need the correct adapter at the radio end.
Who it suits on board
This is a practical match for runabouts, pontoons, and center consoles that cruise near shore and still want local AM/FM stations, while keeping the antenna protected and out of the way.
