Review on πŸ“» VHF UHF Ham Radio Police Scanner Antenna | Magnetic Base BNC Male | Compatible with Uniden Bearcat Whistler Radio Shack | Mobile Radio Scanner Antenna for Amateur Radio and Police Scanner by Daniel Espinoza

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good value for my purposes

Decent solution for my occasional use with a handheld scanner in the car to improve the signal instead of an additional 17" antenna or a short standard antenna. I simply placed the magnet base on the roof, then fed the wire through the door opening and closed the door. Plug the BNC connector into the front seat and connect it to the scanner. Yes, it's a thin wire compared to shielded cables, but that makes it withstand a closed door. Haven't deployed the antenna at freeway speeds so can't comment on wind resistance, but at 40mph it stays in place.

Pros
  • Handy part
Cons
  • Not the best
