(More customer reviews)I bought this antenna for a base station but was concerned that I would need a ground plane as in most other transmitter antennas. I installed this atop my television antenna pole(yup, still use it) and had to run 54-feet of RG-58A/U coax to the radio. After installation I tested the antenna with a VHF VSWR meter and found a 1.5:1 ratio, which is awesome considering the length of coax and where the antenna is mounted. I didn't have to adjust anything on the antenna, just put the whip in with the provided allen wrench and mounted the pole... pretty simple and no hassle.
For the money, I don't think you can go wrong with this little guy and the 6dB gain equates to 100Watts effective transmitter power from a 25Watt radio.
