Loving this antenna. The low profile design and durability are outstanding. I even was able to receive a signal from one of our home VHF repeaters from a distance of about 300 kms. Only downside is now that I'm not using my old 1/4 wave antenna, I occasionally have trouble finding my vehicle in parking lots...ha, ha.
LOL I have had the exact same issue in finding my car in parking lots.
Im just getting it setup in my car. Its been a pretty solid antenna and super low profile I sort of forget its even there. Ive been having a hard time to get good swr on both 70cm and 2m at the same time. I suspect that isnt an issue of the antenna as much as user error.
Looks great.
Easy to set very low SWR. Very stealthy antenna and can hardly be noticed on a dark-coloured car. Excellent construction. Be careful of getting fingers under antenna when placing on metal surface- those magnets are for real. P:assed the 100 km/hr. test easily. Yes- I feel guilty about exceeding the limit. A high-quality unit that looks like it can really stand up to the weather. Well done!!! 73 VE7EKH
Thank you and I should put in a warning about the magnets. They might be a bit overkill but it is much better than a antenna flying off a car.
We also have updated the tuning tutorials. You can get this to be Dual band with one little trick...https://youtu.be/skwCZjFP8a8?si=G9PhMjQR2f1_zxCX
