Great compact HT antenna!
Review by
Peter
I purchased this antenna to use at home with my digital hotspot, and at hamfests. It gets out surprisingly well, is very flexible, and doesn't poke you in the ribs! I highly recommend...

Good range, not so good fit
Review by

Nice compact little antenna, similar to the Maldol MH-209SMA in length and flexibility. However, it does not screw down all the way on my Icom ID-51 or ID-52 HTs - there is a 1-2mm gap between the bottom of the antenna and the radio. Does not affect performance, but might allow for water/moisture ingress at the antenna mount. This antenna does screw down all the way on Yaesu and Kenwood units (tested on VX-3, VX-7, VX-8, and TH-74D).

Perfect

Using this little guy on my Icom ID-52 and I am very surprised at how far it will reach. I have been able to pick up a repeater that is approximately 3.5 miles away from INSIDE MY HOUSE! I was not expecting this as I got it to use while connecting to my digital hotspot. I was also able to talk with my children (one of my children, the other does not have their license, yet) on simplex while they were walking the dog around the block as well and the audio was crystal clear. Not sure what kind of wizardry they are using with this little guy, but I am very happy with it.

Very flexible and good range for its size
Review by

I picked this up to have a very small antenna for hiking with a group where the small size on a Yaesu VX-6 makes for a nice and tiny HT on the trail (with a big signal stick in my pack) and is great for use with a hotspot.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that this little antenna could still hit some of the local repeated while I'm sitting in my office.
Overall I'm very impressed.
