Guess you could always write something on the outside, stating that there's a "Radio Antenna" inside...

I bought a coiled antenna years ago from a on-line company thats not around anymore, and that was the way they shipped it to me. It came UPS in a 4" PVC pipe, and the end caps were just taped on (not glued)...That was after 911, but before all the "White Powder" scares...

I would think you could still mail it that way tho...Just may have to let them look inside first.

I got a sirio p5000 from h&y a few months ago. They shipped it in the pvc pipe with the ends taped up as well. The mailman asked if it.was a stripper pole.

That's very true. But I was going on a lengthy road trip so I thought to throw the radio back in for the ride. Radio is out and the antenna is off...has been for some time now and there's no plans to put it back in.

Quick note: the Sirio Performer 5000 is a great mobile antenna. it blows away the Wilson 5k in tuning, TX & RX. It's very broadbanded and it's much sleeker and cooler looking.
