Product Reviews
"Works great to move between our cars, can be mounted on either the roof or trunklid. Over time the "coils" have developed a slight backward bend but it still works perfectly. Extremely durable, I've put it on the roof and forget to remove it - the base allowed it to tip over when it hit the roof of the garage with no damage; yet it doesn't release even driving 65mph into strong head-wind over 50mph. That's ho..." Read Full Review »

"This antenna should only be used in a stationary setting. Do NOT use as a mobile antenna on the roads or highways as the magnet is NOT going to withstand a lot of speed. The antenna itself will bend and whip and will eventually break the coils rendering all but the lowest section non-functional as a receiver.

"I have been using these antennas since the early 90's. I have used them for both scanner reception and 2m/70cm transmission. These antennas hold up great under pressure as a mobile unit, but as mentioned by others, it REQUIRES and iron or steel mounting surface. Never had a problem with these antenn …" Read Full Review »

"I've had this antenna for about 2 1/2 years, and have gotten some good use out of it. It's used with my Uniden BCD996T scanner when I go on long trips. The worst thing about this antenna is that it will fly off the vehicle if you are traveling against strong headwinds at 65+ MPH. I had it fall of …" Read Full Review »

Best Uses
"Antenna improved reception as it should. Can't complain about it falling off at 75mph, the auto manufacturer should have used steel. Haven't bent it yet and it still looks like new. To Radio Shack marketing tech's...I'd like to see a non magnetic version of this antenna with a ground plane kit for …" Read Full Review »
