Would not stand in a car in cross winds

Stayed on roof at 70 mph with no wind - but breaks down quickly (<1 minute) at highway speeds in cross winds. I'm sending it back because I wanted to use something in my car; but it might be a good choice for those who want a cheap indoor antenna attached to a filing cabinet, baking sheet, or other large metal object to act as a ground. It really improved signal reception when attached to my car. It can also be a good choice for parking/stuck emergencies.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Does not fit all

Does what it says in antennas

I installed this antenna back in the middle of my tundra and had a strong RF signal near repeaters and everyone within 10 miles of an area with lots of green trees and some small hills. drove 60 mph with no problems, it's made for UHF and VHF 6 meters, will probably have bad SWR, peel off the paint, put a 3 meter sticker on a clean spot, then put the antenna on it, press on the pad. Pretty tricky, just two fingers stretching the wire, you can hit the repeaters 30 miles away or more with the…

Guess It's Alright

It's quite short. I really wanted a bigger one but I think it does the job. I needed an external antenna for my Baofeng UV5R portable radio because it has a lot of interference in my car. Probably due to static through the case from the electronics, but I'll admit my reception was good and clear once plugged in, or it seems to have confirmed my theory of interference. However, it really should have a much stronger magnet. It comes with a double sided sticky liner that you can put on the bottom…

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Big and Bulky

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…

  • Everything is fine!

Decent for the price

I am using this antenna on a Baofeng UV5R set up as a cellphone in my truck. This is an improvement over any portable antenna you can put on it. I was able to use it to successfully talk to a repeater 9 miles away with a lot of terrain in between here and there. I can't even turn on this repeater unless I'm using my Nagoya UT72 antenna. I have a fake 771 antenna which is great, but I can't get a reliable connection to the repeater with it (just a note, I'm not trying to use the 771 out of a…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
