Great antenna in antennas

This antenna was a great addition to my Baofang GT-3 portable radio. I was able to increase the range of my radio from about 4 miles to about 20 miles when mounted on the trunk and to about 25 miles when mounted on a van roof. The magnetic mount held while cruising the freeway at 80 mph.

Pros
  • Radio antennas
Cons
  • I will add later

This works better than I expected.

I was amazed at the performance of this antenna. I want to use this to get into the relay. I am interested in switching to DMR ht Radio. Without this antenna, I can't get into the repeater with the stick antenna for my Baofang. It's just great to get something that works better than I expected.

Pros
  • Antennas
Cons
  • Slightly dented

The antenna itself works fine. However, the cable.

The antenna itself works well. However, the cable is too short to fit my SUV and the SMA socket will not fit my transceiver without an SMA male/female adapter. More money for an extension cord and a matching adapter. The element doesn't screw tightly into the magnetic mount, so we'll see how the bolt lasts a winter or two in the Midwest.

Pros
  • Accessories and consumables
Cons
  • Frequency

Good antenna, short cable

antenna works well with BaoFeng UV5R. Now I can hit the repeater at a distance of 25 miles. The magnet is quite strong and sticks to the roof of my car even at high speed. The only downside is that the cable is only 9.5 feet long.

Pros
  • This TNP antenna NA-771S SMA high gain dual band antenna is expandable and will greatly improve the signal of your radio.
Cons
  • Vulgarity
