I installed this antenna in my attic intending to use it for 2m and 440. The SWR across the 2m band is 4+. The SWR may be because of the attic installation, however, across most of the 440 band SWR is 1.5 to 2. I expected much better 2m performance so that resulted in the 3 rating.

Another Winner from Comet!

I started looking a small, unobtrusive dual-band vertical for installation at my girlfriend's house, and wound up getting one of these after researching what's available. It works great, and the longest part of the installation was mounting the brackets to the side of the house. It's just above the peak of the roof, and I can hit all the repeaters I can hear.
I wanted a "Low Gain" antenna so I could use it on the FM Satellites, as well as the ISS, and it fills the bill.
