## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Perfect for handheld
  

*by P***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2021*

Seems to get better reception, high priced for what it is I think but it is Rugged Radio so it’s quality and probably going to last awhile

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Signal Increase
  

*by B***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2019*

Nice antenna, connects solid to the radio. Does add a bit of length but worth it for the increase in range.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
