Review on πŸ“‘ Super Antenna SR1 UHF VHF Broadband Scanner SDR Antenna: Portable & Collapsible Tripod Design by Steven Brouillard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Significantly improved reception.

Bought to try on my Home Patrol 2, reception on the HP2 is compatible with the kit antenna terrible. After assembly, I attached 50 feet of cable and installed the antenna on the deck. I got instant hits from stations I knew were there because I could pick them up with my twenty year old radio shop scanner. This antenna makes the hp2 worth keeping in my scanner/radio lineup. I ordered an MR 642 radial kit to add to this antenna and can't wait to hook up other radios and practice this antenna.

Pros
  • CONTENTS: This is a tripod antenna only. DOES NOT INCLUDE COAXIAL CABLE. You need a coaxial cable and/or a COAXIAL ADAPTER for your scanner. PACKAGE CONTENTS: Telescopic antenna + tripod sleeve + three tripod legs + instructions. High quality aircraft aluminum, brass fittings, soft black plastic footpegs. RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES: Super Antenna Radial Set Model MR642 (sold separately) - Super Antenna Model SW1 SuperWhip Titanium Flex Whip (sold separately)
