Oct 31, 2024 · The range is is the same as any other GMRS antenna (except that UT-72G) but I chose it because the "twist" on the antenna makes it a few inches shorter than all other 5/8 wave (or …

Nov 16, 2023 · I'm not worried as much about cost as I am having the best long range NMO no ground plane GMRS antenna I can get, prefer at least ⅝ wave. Nothing under 5db gain and it should also be …

Sep 29, 2024 · I want to get a "stubby" antenna I can leave on most of the time to clear the garage door. I may want to get a longer / "better" antenna for longer trips. There are not a lot of dual band options …

Apr 2, 2020 · Some users have combined GMRS and CB antennas on the same mount. NMO mounts are generally preferred. Consider antenna stiffness to prevent mount damage and be mindful of …

Jun 4, 2024 · This led me to talking with Ed Fong about some antenna theory and decided to buy the DBJ-UHF antenna tuned for GMRS, for my GMRS antenna. I ordered the antenna and received it in …

Dec 10, 2024 · Love my Midland Ghost Antenna, allows me to fit my truck in the garage. Works really well for GMRS and has some decent range for being so small, also really good in hilly areas.

Apr 3, 2023 · I know this is probably a lot to ask, but I am a new ham, with GMRS contacts I would like to keep in touch with. What is the best mobile (car) antenna for 2 meter/70cm and GMRS?

Apr 2, 2025 · It's crazy to me how GMRS uses a small antenna and really doesn't care where it is. I'm so used to CB radio where antenna length, mounting, and SWR are so critical to if your radio even works.

Feb 12, 2025 · Normally one would put a second vertical antenna up that is a 1/4 wave length away from the main radiating antenna to get some gain and directional characteristics. A 1/4 wave for GMRS is …

Dec 18, 2024 · The ABBREE 771 UHF/VHF antenna will work on the GMRS frequencies and ironically even marginally better than the ABBREE 771 GMRS antenna. I tested it on simplex and thru a …
