good dualband performer

Time owned: more than 12 months

This is a good all-around antenna for urban dual-band operation. Smaller than the typical 2/70, it doesn't attract attention to itself. It resists weathering well, and is fairly durable, but the center contact is easily damaged on the NMO as evidenced by the warning included. Do not screw this antenna down too much when fitting it to your mount! It needs a little space to allow the rubber collar to flex if the antenna takes a hit. Once the contact is bent, it tends to break if you try to unbend it. You have been warned.

very durable.
Living in the hills of southern New England, I needed an antenna with no gain.
Worked like a charm.
