Pleasantly surprised

This is a solid, powerful HT antenna, but definitely better than the rubber clamp that came with my FT-60. I went from S-4 to S-6 on TX and RX to a 25 mile repeater and that's really the main result, isn't it? My only concern is that this antenna has enough mass and rigidity that a good punch could damage the SMA HT connector. Eventually I had a very light prime antenna for this HT and wasn't worried about it. However, this is the antenna that will remain on the FT-60 as its performance is exactly what I was hoping for. The photo shows the antenna on my HT for scale. That's a big deal.
