Dual Band 2m/70cm Antenna jpole

Rubber Duckies?
The proper antenna can extend your transmitting and receiving range.
A magnetic car topper will give you a substantial increase in distance.
Keep your antennas up! Not sideways...

Dual Band 2m/70cm Antenna jpole

Post by OSCAR-03 »

I have one of these for when I have trouble getting out with my Baofeng UV-5R ham radio. I believe it works well with most GMRS radios also. Please advise if any one else has additional information when using it with GMRS.
