Review on HYS-771N Dual Band VHF/UHF Antenna For YAESU & Baofeng (1 Pack) - SMA-Male Connector by Jasin Gilstrap

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good antenna on my review.

After finding that my calibration on my nano vna was off, I must revisit this review.When properly calibrated, I find that the SWR on this antenna is quite reasonable. SWR is just less than 2 on the VHF side, but very low (less than 1.2 on 440) on the UHF side. Compared to a handful of other antennas, I find that it has the lowest SWR on UHF than any of them.It seems that this antenna does make a difference on the UHF side, at least on DMR. VHF doesn't seem to be quite as strong though.I will say that I regard it as a good antenna, and apologize to the seller for any misconceptions that my previous review might have given.So, given the quality construction, and reasonable SWR readings, I must update my review and credit the antenna with more stars. It seems to be a good antenna.

Pros
  • Works awesome
Cons
  • Limited compatibility with external amplifiers or signal boosters
