Diamond mr77

[txsarge]

I was thinking about getting the DIAMOND MR77 for my vehicle. I was wondering what everyone thought of that antenna or if yall have a better antenna than that one.

Right now I have an:
HT - Yaesu VX-7R
with the DIAMOND SRH77CA

Thanks everyone, 73!

Looks expensive for $40!

Good reviews on eham.

Pretty good for a stealth antenna, go for a 5/8 wave for 2m if you want a bit more coverage.

One good thing about this antenna is it won't get caught in trees as much as a bigger one.

Hey David,

I have the MR77. It works fine for me. I went with it for one primary purpose as I park my Ford Escape in my garage and it doesn't bang on the top of the garage entrance like the longer whips. The coverage is good, but keep in mind most of my repeaters in Denver are 10-12K ASL.

73,

Thanks guys, yeah It will be going on my Ford Escape also. So, if it will work in your garage then it will / should work in mine.
