Don't lose your signal in the surf. The genuine XP ICON and ICONX Remote Control Antenna Clip is a small but critical component for any water hunter, designed to securely anchor your aerial antenna to your remote control for flawless underwater performance.
Why Choose the Genuine XP Antenna Clip?
Wireless multi-frequency technology is incredible, but standard wireless signals cannot travel through water. To hunt submerged targets with your XP ICON or ICONX, you must use an aerial antenna to carry the signal from your search coil up to your remote control. Manufactured by XP Metal Detectors, this purpose-built clip ensures your antenna wire stays perfectly positioned over the remote's receiver.
At Serious Detecting, we know that crashing waves and fast currents can easily knock makeshift attachments loose. A dropped signal means missed targets. This genuine OEM clip slides securely onto your remote control housing, clamping the antenna firmly in place without scratching the display or interfering with your screen visibility. It is a highly affordable, must-have backup part for any serious beach or river detectorist.
Key Benefits for the Serious Detectorist
- OEM Factory Fit: Custom-molded to securely snap onto the exact dimensions of the XP ICON and ICONX remote controls without slipping.
- Maintains Signal Integrity: Keeps the end of your aerial antenna perfectly aligned with the remote's receiver module so you never drop a target signal underwater.
- Durable Construction: Made from marine-grade, impact-resistant polymer that won't degrade in saltwater or snap in cold weather.
- Essential Spare Part: Small clips are easily misplaced in the sand; keeping a spare in your pouch ensures your water hunt is never cut short.
