Review on Bingfu 136 174MHz 400 470MHz Handheld Magnetic by David Reyes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Does what it should

I installed this antenna in the back center of my tundra and had a strong RF signal near the repeaters and everyone within 10 miles of a property line with lots of green trees and small hills was driving 60 mph. Hour no problem, it's made for UHF and VHF. 6 meters is probably bad SWR, peel off paint, stick a 3 meter sticker on a clean spot, then put the antenna on, press the pad with force, just two fingers. Wire, you can hit repeaters 30 miles away or more with an 8-watt Baofeng UV-5r. Make sure you get a ham radio license, it's against the law to broadcast on ham radio bands without one, you can pay and get a FRS license for your whole family for $70 and you can get it on many gsmr channels use that you have to pay for. There are also 5 walkie-talkie channels you can use them on, although the power on them is a bit high, all this info is on the net. Good luck, it's KL5GI 73.
