Pasé por los lugares donde no tenía buena señal y me sorprendió esta antena con señales fuertes y claras.

Works well on vhf. Tested with vna. 1.2 vswr but could not get it below 2.1 on 70 cm no matter what. I'll keep it as a spare but buying a different antenna as i didn't want to fry my mobile using 70 cm or 1.2

A little disappointed with the performance but I sacrificed gain for height. I use this for 2 meter and 3/4 meter FM. Originally had a center loaded BR-180-B (37.5") on the rear deck but when I moved to an SUV with only the roof available for mounting I needed a shorter antenna to fit in the garage.SWR is below 1.5:1 but sensitivity on receive is noticeably poorer. Gain on 2M appears to be unity since it's a 1/4 wave there and gain on 446MHz is about 2.5dB since it's a 5/8 wave in this band.

Very pleased with this antenna. Low SWR across the VHF/UHF amateur radio bands.

I tested the antenna for reflected power on 146 MHz and there was very little. I got it for a portable VHF antenna. Oh, one more thing: check if there is any part of the copper shield showing on the mount. If there is, cover it with some black sealer that’s used for sealing leaks so that any rain water won’t be conducted into the mount.

Bravo…. Très performante… bon rendement pour la bande radioamateur. Merci

No matter what I did, I could not get an SWR less than 2.0 with this antenna, usually closer to 3.0. I tried it on various frequencies on both bands, different vehicles, different radios, and even different bases, but it just didn't improve. I do not recommend and certainly would not buy it again.

Compared coverage and very comparable to my 5/8 wave.

Works pretty good on UHF and vhf giving a low swr over the ham 2m and 70cm bands

Solid little antenna. Does what it is supposed to do. Base is solid and comes with an allen key to maintain the set screws.

The stinger is approximately 1/4 inch short so I had one a-little longer. This made able in my case to be 1.15 to1 from 144.5 to 150 MHz so it performs better in the vhf uhf band (amateur).

Buy a quality product like a Comet, or Diamond. This antenna is a very poor performer!
