Great Antenna - Audio Video Accessory

This antenna works really well. I only use it on VHF and UHF. There is no 800MHz in my area. Receives VHF signals fairly far and is crystal clear.

Pros
  • Great Design
Cons
  • Protection

Outstanding scanner antenna

Excellent antenna. Use it on my Uniden BCD436HP scanner. I have been satisfied with every Diamond antenna I have owned and this is no exception.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Something different

Works fine for me. Fits antennas

Replaces the one that came with my TRX 2. I haven't scanned much since I got them, but some channels already seem clearer than they used to be.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • No automatic

Not a fan of hanging antennas

Bought at a local radio/comms store. It worked but only lasted a day. The hinge was too loose and fell off, knocking my radio over and falling on the antenna, breaking it. I will definitely not buy a hinged antenna again.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Nothing

Does NOT work on Home Patrol I. Wiring is different.

Despite answers in reviews that this works on Home Patrol 1, it does NOT work. The connection is different. In the photo on the left is Home Patrol's standard antenna, on the right is Diamond.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not sure

The best universal antenna!

Good! I've used SO many different handheld antennas and haven't been happy. This antenna made me happy! Perfectly executed! It is built with high quality materials and will last a long time. This is the only antenna I currently use (connected directly to the scanner, with no external antennas). If you wish, you can easily get in the mood for your group. I am an avid military radio listener. No TV antenna can match this performance! It also shines for 700/800 MHz systems. If I'm scanning…

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
