Passive antenna is being sold as being optimized to receive a sliver of bandwidth with 1090mhz representing the target. Because it's passive, it most likely delivers the signal to the receiver chock full of other random signals from across a wide band... Read More
Fine as is for indoor use, would need a bit of mod for permanent outside use. Matches performance of a much more expensive fiberglass antenna on amazon. I have it hanging in an attic window that has no screen.
Boom is a good value for air traffic surveillance. Purchased four units. Already ordered a second just to have a spare. Great value to cost ratio.
For the money this little antenna performs outstanding! Awesome performer axico. Working excellent!
Same location, same receiver, all the same except for the antenna. There is no way to connect it directly to an rtl-sdr device as this has the wrong * connector.
It comes with two rubber washers to seal up on your radio. Looks great and does its job nicely.
Using my baofeng uv-5r+ on 2 meter. Got this to upgrade my hand held and to help reach the local repeater. Haven't put it on a swr meter yet but am happy with the performance so far.
A little obnoxious when unwrapped but management. Very easy to adjust for sizing. Feel strong and manageable size.
Worse than sainsonic stock antenna or better nagoya equivalents. The stock rubber ducky is 100x’s better. Thank you for the refund amazon.
Don't buy the 18 incher. Will not transmit on 2m ham band. Poor match on baofeng gt-3tp, way worse to even pickup fm radio stations.
