picking up my gme tx3400 on monday, i'm just trying to decide which antenna to go for
i'm thinking of the gme ae4705 4.5db its 1.2m long
just wondering what others are using and in what terrain etc
most of my driving is probably in hilly areas but i will be travelling a bit over the coming years so i was hoping to buy a good all rounder?
or just buy 2 antennas?
I use a GME elevated feed with a wire whip on it around town and have a plug under the bonnet for a 6 foot fibreglass on a spring base for touring, although I think I'll be getting rid of the 6 foot 1 soon. Too much of a pain around town when I can't be bothered to take ti off.
one of the best around much better build quality to the GME.
(every UHF place told me this)
i can also swap from 9db to 6db and just put the smaller whip on it.
The big plastic ones arent that good easier to break but get more distant but it needs to be a flat area like dessert but mine has a range of around 3-5kms depending on terrain.

I have a GME AE4702 with spring and cable, like new, if ya interested. Only had on for a few months until UHF shat itself and I bought a handheld instead. This retails for $140, you can have it for $100.
