Impressive performance for a small antenna Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
I purchased this repeater for my 927.0375 repeater that I installed at the local hospital. Due to the many antennas that were on the tower, including ones for my 2 meter and 440 repeaters, I was only allowed to setup a small antenna. I was expecting to have subpar coverage for my repeater due to this. I was pleasantly surprised that my Quantar repeater was achieving about 80 - 90% of the coverage my 440 repeater was getting in most directions. My 440 repeater is on a side mounted Diamond X700HNA with quite a bit more gain. Not too shabby. After feedline and duplexer loss, I estimate just under 40-watts reaching the antenna. The specs for the antenna is 100-watts max power handling.
