Review on 📻 Tram(r) 1477-B Pre-Tuned VHF/UHF Amateur Dual-Band Base Antenna (Black Fiberglass) - 144MHz-148MHz/430MHz-460MHz, 44.00in. x 3.00in. x 2.00in. by Bob Taylor

I bought this for HOA usage which is not really enforced but I didn't want to go over the limit. I installed it on a 25ft pole and it works great for simplex calls in my area but can't reach a repeater 8 miles away. I live in Florida and it seems my area is right in the middle. I plan on using a larger, higher gain antenna to see if that solves the problem. I don't think it's the antenna, it's the location, but it's hard to give this one more than 4 stars.
