Seems like a good deal,

I took a chance, it's about half the price. You can see small machine marks, very light. Came together very easily and all the threads were good. I was careful when putting it on so as not to tear, it seemed like everything was fine. The UHF mount fits well, no problem. Haven't installed it on a pole yet, it attaches to the top rail of the chain link railing. good on my scanner, haven't tried to transfer and check SWR yet. I'll come back later and update. Right now I feel like I made the right…

Pros
  • gets a solid 100-1600MHz! It can also be used to transmit on 144, 430, 904, 1200MHz (up to 50W). The gain is 2.15 dBi (144/904/1200 MHz) and 3.4 dBi (440 MHz) SWR &lt;1.5:1.
Cons
  • Empty

Looks very cool, specs are ok

It's a mini disc, I'm still skeptical that it's worth the investment, it behaves like a disco at UHF and higher, but looks cool assembled on a magnetic base works well as a normal antenna for your SDR. In the apartment or in the cell phone, but be sure to choose a regular drive if you have space to install it.

Pros
  • Antennas
Cons
  • There are flaws

Take me to your leader.

Discone D220R good antenna. This is version 2 of this model. Excellent quality, durable, not hollow, with good features. Recommended for scanning or broadcasting on 144/440/900/1200 MHz (100 to 12000). Excellent coverage. The rods are welded and mounted outside on the roof of the house. Would recommend as I was skeptical but was able to return it. I'll keep it because it's great.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Nothing
