Very high SWR

The description says this antenna is for Baofeng UV-82 handheld transmitter. It's garbage! Luckily I recently bought an SWR/Power meter for these radios. When I connected everything and checked the antenna, it failed miserably! I got an SWR of 5.6:1. !.5:1 is the max you need. These antennas are garbage! Most likely illegal copies. Just expect that from Revain. The best antenna I have found for the Baofeng UV-82 is the ABBREE 28.3" Foldable Tactical Antenna. My SWR is 1.1:1.

Pros
