Interesting comments. I never thought about that before. It it true that with VHF and UHF, the higher the better. I am hoping to put up a discone antenna within the next few months, and we will see what happens.
This is a great video.. I live in the downtown of a city and I have only been in the hobby for about 6 months.. I don't have a base station yet, only portables.. I noticed that when I use anything but the rubber duck antenna for trunking i don't get much at all.. Some of the other antennas I have do work ok for conventional scanning but not for trunking.. This video explains it all..I have so many questions.. Thank you..
