Review: Works great - Item as described. Works so far.
Review: A good antenna for no ground plane! - i have a jeep with a plastic roof and i needed a good vhf antenna. This was a good buy! Most VHF antennas require almost a 3 foot diamiter of ground plane to receive signal correctly. This antenna doesnt due to the load coil. I would recomend this for anybody that needs an antenna and does not have the ground space area.
