Outstanding! Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
I just recently purchased this duel band antenna to use on a roof mounted NMO mount. This little wonder has a 1/4 wave on 2 meters providing 2.15 db gain and when using 440, it has a 1/2 wave providing 2.15 dB gain. This little antenna will take up to 100 watts and the VSWR is less than 1.5:1. In my local area, it looks alot like a cell phone antenna which decives would-be thieves, and does not stand out. I can hit all the local repeaters just fine, and kicking 50 watts through it, I am able to communicate simplex as if I was standing outside the other vehicle I'm talking to. A very reasonable price, and a small footprint with alot of go!

BEATS ALL SHORT DUALS Time Owned: more than 12 months.
FANTASTIC LITTLE ANTENNA!!
JUST OVER A FOOT IN LENGTH!
$39.95 MOST STORES
SLIGHTLY LESS PERFORMANCE THAN A QUARTER WAVE ON 2 METERS.
EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE ON 440MHZ
UNLIKE MOST SMALL DUAL BANDERS, THIS ONE ISN'T JUST A 2 METER QUARTER WAVE MARKETED AS A DUAL BANDER!!
