The SWR is not as advertised.

From 1.9:1 to well over 2:1 at 2m. not close to the advertised SWR. Took me by surprise as I have been happy with Comet products in the past. So the B10 has been donned again and it will return to Revain.

Pros
  • Accessories
Cons
  • Expensive insurance

Should it be bent? It's not exactly like the picture.

I assume it can't be bent? The box I received it in looked like it had been run over by a Sherman tank. I'll update this review once I know how well it works.

Pros
  • Portable audio/video
Cons
  • Seniors

The delivery was terrible.

This antenna looks well built but it mutes for HF listening which is a shame. Works great on VHF/UHF, plan to use with my icom ic-705. Great altitude too, it's a bit on the heavy side too. Well packaged I think. although the conversion was on the bad side.

Pros
  • Mobile antenna 2m/70cm
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Great little antenna.

I live on the outskirts of town so accessing multiple repeaters is not a problem. Powerful and clear transmissions. The reception is clear and sufficient for urban use. I haven't tried this antenna in the country yet. I installed it on a three way mount in the hood. I can finally get into the garage without scratching the antenna in the top door.

Pros
  • Connector: PL-259
Cons
  • Minor issues
