radtelSMA-Female Dual Band Tactical Antenna 136-174/400-520Mhz Compatible with Baofeng Kenwood Radtel RT-900 RT-890 RT-4D RT-470 RT-470X and More (Foldable Tactical Antenna)

I have a TalkPod A36 Pro Intl version and I have this mostly for the ability to listen to planes in the local area and occasionally listen to the locals on repeaters. This antenna even though tuned for Aviation Bands 108-136mhz which it still allows better than stock antenna's reception on the higher bands. When it comes to aviation bands on my A36 it is definitely a vast improvement over the stock antenna for sure. It is much longer but is very flexible and can bent down to fit in a case or removed easily. This antenna gets plans communicating with ATC at a distance maximum in my area of over 80 miles away. I cant hear the local airports tower (rarely at night inside) but if I go outside the airport is about 6 miles away and I can make out the ATIS as well as the tower and departure and clearance delivery channels without issue. The old antenna could never hear the tower or ATIS so there is a vast improvement with this antenna. Great Buy fast Shipping and Works great you cant go wrong! NOT just for RADTEL Radios at all. Fits most handheld.

This extended the range of my radio.

Delivered quickly and in excellent shape. Thanks

The problem is that they sent it bent in such a small package that the bend will not come undone. I really don't care to have an antenna that isn't straight.

Definitely tuned for 118-136.Don't expect to use it for 2M or 70cm's.

Although I wasn't necessarily a fan of these modern "tactical" (?) antennas that fold, it seemed like it was going to be better than the original antenna that came on my Radtel RT-490. I was not really impressed with it's receive or transmit and had hoped this might make a difference.Well, I'm impressed. After installing, I noticed immediate improvement in receive. Transmit seems much better although I haven't had any QSOs using this antenna just yet. But I gotta say the receive is so much better, even on air band. The ability to fold it is nice since it is long; you can still receive when folded but performance is much better unfolded. I strapped the included velcro to the antenna unfolded, so that it will always be there when I do want to fold it.

I thought this would extend the transmit and receive range on my Baofeng HT. The build quality is crummy. The O ring fell off as soon as I took it out of the package. And the rubber cap fell off the tip as well.But THE WORST thing is that this doesn't even work as an antenna! No reception, no transmit PERIOD. I couldn't understand why I was not getting reception from a local Repeater just 3 miles away. I was able to tune it on my Kenwood HT. I thought maybe the Baofeng radio wasn't working right and would have to return it.On a whim I took the ultra cheap rubber duck antenna out of the box and swapped it on my HT. PERFECT Reception and good transmit. FROM THE CHEAP ANTENNA that came with the Baofeng radio.I tossed this antenna in the trash. Total waste of money. The only thing it was good for was chasing my cats away from the dinner table. Utter junk. AVOID!

Very good TX and RX of all three bands on my Radtel. I would rank it a notch above the Abree 771 on this radio on 2M and 70CM bands. YMMV

Cumple totalmente mis necesidades

Haven't used it a lot but seems to give me better range/clarity of signal. The folding option is great because I can leave it folded down unless I need the extra pickup.

Problematica su alcune frequenze

Comparado con otro dispositivo con antena original está antena no recibe nada mientras la original si capta señal además en la antena no viene grabado el rango de frecuencias el vendedor debería de cambiar el anuncio es una antena larga y poco más e incluso si es como pone de banda aérea editar un video con analizador de antena como verificación de que el artículo cumple con la especificaciones del anuncio
