Review on NSKI SRH805S Antenna Baofeng BF 888S by Cyrus Wright

I already like this antenna because it's not annoying despite its small size! It makes a great "top antenna" for a compact radio so you can pocket it like I did with my UV-5R when I'm on the go. It mates perfectly with the base of the UV-5R antenna, and surprisingly, transmitting and receiving isn't a simple dummy load like some standard antennas! On 888's it fits this reel very well and while on 888's it's snug and snug you'll have to pull it a little tighter until it's difficult to get off easily but that doesn't make it any less secure. Coming back to my UV-5R's "pocket transport," it picks up various VHF and UHF repeaters, public safety transmitters, etc. if it's within 5-8 miles, but nothing special if you put it in carry in your pocket, I suggest this and maybe something like a Nagoya 771R in the pocket next to it in case you suddenly need Rx or Tx on the go. You can't go wrong with the price either.
