(8inch)-(14inch) 2M/70CM Antenna

Ive had very good performance from this GMRS antenna. Consistently hits a repeater nearly 25 miles away even when not fully extended! Robust build, do not hesitate on this one..its a winner! Priced right too.

I own all kinds of antennas. Comet. Signal sticks, other brands. I bought this and put it on a Nano VNA and it has great swr. Better than any other antennas I have as far as ducks go. All the way extended is about 1.7 on vhf. Push it in 1” and the swr is then 1.3 on vhf. On 440 it is 1.3 with the whip pushed in 2” and on GMRS at 462 to 468 it is 1.3 pushed in another inch. The receive is better as well. On fm radio receiver (FT65) it does a better job pulling in stations than all my other ducks. Adjust for best signal. I just ordered 2 more. Good antenna.

This antenna works pretty well compressed or extended on 70 cm and nearly as well on GMRS. SWR is a little high compressed on 70cm only but acceptable. SWR good otherwise. Readability was just a little worse extended than compressed on 70cm two miles across town for some reason. Haven't conducted voice over distance tests on 2m yet so can't report that. May solve the problem of long enough for longer range yet adjusts to short enough to use in a car or on your belt.

I love the BNC antennas because they have a better signal quality. Good price and it looks solid (built). A flexible antenna including the extension. I opened the antenna to a full extension (around 14 inches) and it makes a difference on your signal quality. Worth the price and more.

I can now here my scanner pickup even from a distance.

The antenna itself seems fine. The problem was that on the first one, the BNC fitting would not seat properly on any of the BNC connectors that I had. It would almost seat, but I couldn't turn the collar enough to secure it. I ordered another, just on a whim, and it fits perfectly on all of my BNC based radios. I haven't seen any others that had this issue, but it is something to be aware of when buying lower priced antennas with less stringent quality control.

Solid bnc connection fit on my GM30 Pro with adapter. The range is an absolute upgrade from the original antenna. Love the very flexible quality made telescopic features. Feels extremely durable compared to others in this price range.

Fast shipping, good product...

110km report that should say enough. Works better then my more expensive Nagoya. Compact 8" and extends to 13" this is now my every day carry antenna. Even with a bnc adapter I didn't notice any issues. I would recommend.

I like the quality of the antenna was a good deal and works as it should with my Uniden BCD436HP Scanner! But you will need a SMA/BNC adapter.

Seems to be a contender with my other antennas. Haven't hooked up to my VNA yet to check SWR but will believe others tests that it is accurate. I like the adjustability to fine tune using my firmwares spectrum analyzer vs a solid whip. And flexible unlike stainless tube telescopic types while in a backpack or takes a tumble.

Bon produit

I was surprised how well it worked on UHF, not too bad on vhf either.
