Review on Tram 140MHz-170MHz + 430MHz-470MHz Dual Band NMO Antenna (1181): Efficient Wireless Communication Solution by Vincent Burton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for the money

I used a 38" browning and tram on my work truck and car but it looked a little weird on the car and truck. I crashed into trees many times, I decided to try half the height antenna, I am very surprised by this antenna. It works just as well on my Browning BR180, I can get an 87 mile repeater with my previous antenna and also with this 1181 tram, great for the price and now I don't hit trees and my car doesn't have a ridiculous length Lifetime antenna, I checked the SWR and got 1.1:1-1.2:1 from 145-148MHz and 1.3:1-1.5:1 from 444-449MHz, very impressive antenna for a height of only 18.5 inch, I would recommend this antenna to my friends and I have used this 75 watt antenna with no problems.

Pros
  • Unity VHF Boost
Cons
  • Not bad but...
