Great Reception for Outdoorsy Types

This outdoor antenna is a must-have for anyone who loves being in the great outdoors. The reception is strong and I never miss a call because of weak signal. The device is portable and conveniently lightweight. However, the device is a bit pricey compared to other portable electronics options.

Pros
  • Excellent signal reception for clear audio and video
Cons
  • Requires external power source for operation

Very high VSR antennas

I received the antenna quickly. Installation was easy. I ran it through the Vsr meter and got a shockingly high reading of 19.1. So I started trimming it, checking every inch. Down to 7.8 and then up again vsr. The antenna was unusable for me as it could damage the radio.

Pros
  • Gain 2.15dB, max power 10W and can increase communication range
Cons
  • Waiting too long

Absolutely untuned, best for portable audio and video

This antenna is not tuned at all to 2 meters or 70cm I found it around 138MHz for VHF and centered around 400MHz for UHF. I was brave enough to shorten the antenna to try and tune it, I tuned to 2 meters quite successfully. After trimming the antenna by about 1.5 inches I saw an SWR of 1.09. However, since you can't disassemble the antenna, you don't have access to the underside of the UHF and it's not possible to tune it. In summary, if you want to modify this antenna, it works very well on…

Pros
  • Uses steel wire and heat shrink tubing is very flexible
Cons
  • Nothing here
