On this video we look at a simple and effective way to increase the range of your hand held radio, we do a field test of 2 x radios using a stubby, the standard and a longer higher gain antenna to see what difference the antenna will make.

Good stuff...this actually exited me. Changing antennas makes such a difference. Have the NA771 on mine when portable, x30 and a beam on the ones at home. Makes a heck of a difference each time. Great video, loved it

Hi hi. I took a fake antenna. And measured the normal ant. And cut. Then put a terminal on the remaining peice of the fake. Attached it to a ground point. Pointing 180 degree from the stinger. Now with a counterpoise. It's good to go. To be removed as needed. Kv4li tks

That longer antenna really shows how inefficient the dual band whips are, especially on VHF. The -dbm numbers on the SDR screen were interesting showing a 3db increase from the stock to the long whip on UHF.
@knoxieman

Yes the bundled antennas really are quite poor.

Interesting test there and using the sdr setup. I have the genuine Nagoya aftermarket antenna and it's Chinese knock off copy too, will have to setup something similar and test their efficiency. Bonnie lad you have as a cameraman too. 73s G6JEF.

Great vid.. would have been an interesting test on 70cms repeater on the stubby... I had one for my Kenwood handie.. it got quite hot on 5 watts on uhf!!
@knoxieman
@knoxieman 4 года назад
Thanks, yes I did do it with the stubby but it didn't get in to the repeater, stubby is OK if you're only needing short range but want to pocket the radio, that's really where they come in.

Those stubby antennas show a different resonant frequency with the plastic cap removed, which surprised me.

Iv seen a fiew videos where people have added a tiger tail. Its not something iv ever tried. I was just thinking it would be a good test for u to try with your tripod Paul. Might make a good video with the same 3 antennas into the same repeater? Im enjoying these new stile videos. Cheers mate

i bet the copy antenna is a copy of a nagoya and i have a pair too, mine couldn't fit as well, but i grabbed a pair of wite cutters and removed the extra material near the connector of the antennas, and they fit well now, but there is a gap now between the antenna and the radio that may require some kind of rubber spacer for esthetics 😁
@knoxieman
@knoxieman 4 года назад
Yes that's the problem it has that extra bit of plastic round the base, I could make something a little better looking just used the adapter for speed 👍

@davidsaunders1125 4 года назад
Most whips are only resonant when held near your 🤕 head! If you try them standing alone the resonant frequency on both bands is way off! Try it with an analyser you will be surprised M0iiZ
@concernedpatriot9314
@concernedpatriot9314 3 года назад
Because you were not holding the radio it lost the grounding and lost signal strength !?

Did you say 30 miles ? I thought these Baofengs were not meant for that distance.
@knoxieman

Yes you can easily do 30 miles with a bit of elevation and a clear path radio to radio

5 Watts at 30 meter s up is better than 30 Watts at 5 meters up.. antenna height is far far far better that power Watts...
