Too big for a radio. But it works!

Bought for a radio amateur Baofeng UV-5R. Although it is screwed onto the radio, it is too large to fit into the antenna mount.

Pros
  • Only positive
Cons
  • There are defects

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great idea, absolute junk

I don't have the equipment or experience to actually test it but I hooked this up to 2 uv5r and no reception on the active channels I could get with a standard antenna , including the noaa channels. If it worked I would love the concept of folding.

Pros
  • Solid build
Cons
  • Not sure

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good antenna, solid construction

Product works great. Contributed a little to local reception clarity (about 2.5 miles between users with no repeaters). The only downside is that it creates more interference in the car than the factory antenna. Still great for hiking when a compact range is required.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not bad

Complete Divorce. Zero Stars

This item is linked to an amateur radio channel which gave me the confidence to purchase it. I was very excited to expand my range and when I received it I immediately tried it on two different hams. It didn't work for anyone. To be honest I didn't catch anything. So I removed the cap from the top only to find out there really is a tape measure inside. I come back upset that I wasted my time and money.

Pros
  • Regular Price
Cons
  • No Form Required

Absolute rubbish. The antenna is made of a tape measure from China

Complete scrap. Noticing that my factory rubber ducky antenna was getting a stronger signal than this, I tore it apart and found what you see in the photos. Chinese tape measure for antenna transmitters. I ordered directly from Abbri as a seller at Revain. Complete garbage. If you have a Baofeng radio, do yourself a favor and choose the Xpert XP699. Light years is better than this garbage.

Pros
  • shines
Cons
  • There is trouble
