smallest radar ant.

Looking for a supper small radar ant. to possibly put on the top of the 170.
As a member of the Vol. fire dept. here it sure would be nice to run the bayous in the fog for rescues during the foggy hunting season.
I tried the intra net but am not so very good with it....kinda looking for something around 12 inches or smaller...this is also a key selling point to my other half trying to convince her that a new boat is needed parked in our yard..... thanks guys in advance....

I did a quick search and found the 1623 furuno has a 15" radome for it. I use furuno radar and fish finders and have great luck with their products. Garmin also does make some really nice electronics, and they might have a radar with a smaller radome on it. I do use a Garmin chart plotter and gps and have been very happy it. I hope this helps. Good luck.

I run a Furuno 1623 and really like it. It's bailed me out on a few occasions like when some idiot was running without lights on a moonless night. Don't overlook the JRC radars. They're very user friendly, dependable and they have a 12" radome. They are also at a price that makes them very attractive.
